Is Detaining a Driver's License the Same as Revoking It?
1 Answers
Detaining a driver's license is not the same as revoking it. Detaining a Driver's License: This refers to an administrative compulsory measure taken by traffic police during the execution of their duties. The primary purpose of this measure is to clarify the facts of the driver's traffic violation in order to make an appropriate penalty decision. Revoking a Driver's License: Revocation refers to the situation where a legally obtained driver's license is revoked due to statutory reasons, such as being held responsible for more than half of the liability in a major traffic accident, which requires the license to be revoked according to regulations. These actions are administrative in nature. If your driver's license is revoked, the basic requirement is that you must wait at least 2 years or more before you can reapply.
