Is a review required when the demerit points reach 12 in a scoring cycle? The following is a detailed introduction to the review process when demerit points reach 12 in a scoring cycle: 1. Examination: The motor vehicle driver must, within 15 days, report to the traffic management department of the public security organ at the place where the motor vehicle driving license was issued or where the violation occurred to participate in a seven-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After the driver completes the study, the vehicle management office shall conduct an examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. 2. Passing the Examination: If the examination is passed, the demerit points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driving license will be returned. If the examination is failed, the driver must continue to participate in the study and take the examination again. Refusal to participate in the study or take the examination will result in the traffic management department of the public security organ announcing the suspension of the motor vehicle driving license.
Yes, accumulating 12 points in a scoring cycle definitely requires undergoing a review. I once faced this situation—after my driver's license accumulated 12 points, I was notified by the traffic authorities to attend a specialized traffic safety education course. This usually involves one or two days of classroom learning, covering traffic rules and safety knowledge, followed by an exam to pass. If you fail the exam or don’t handle it, your license will be suspended, making it impossible to drive, which is very troublesome. I recommend everyone follow the rules while driving, especially avoiding speeding and drunk driving, as they carry high point deductions. Handling it before the cycle ends is wise to avoid unexpected delays. Safe driving not only protects your points but, more importantly, ensures safety.
