It is acceptable to deduct six points with a driver's license less than one year old. Definition of the probationary period: According to national regulations, the probationary period for new drivers starts from the day they first obtain their driver's license and lasts for the following 12 months. During this period, new drivers must remember to display a probationary sign on the rear of their vehicle. Penalties for violations: If a driver accumulates 12 penalty points during the probationary period, their driving qualification for the probationary vehicle type will be revoked. If the revoked driving qualification is not for the highest permitted vehicle type, the driver's qualification for the highest permitted vehicle type must also be revoked in accordance with the first paragraph of Article 68.
I just got my driver's license last year, but within a few months, I was penalized with 6 points deducted for speeding on the highway. I was extremely anxious at the time, fearing that my license would be revoked before the end of the probationary period. Later, I checked the regulations and consulted with several experienced drivers, only to learn that for a regular car driver's license, having 6 points deducted during the probationary period is not an issue—as long as you don't reach 12 points, your license won't be canceled. However, it's crucial to handle traffic violations promptly, as delays can result in late fees. Now, I drive with extra caution, afraid of getting any more points deducted, since I only have 6 points left to use before the probationary period ends. I advise new drivers to always pay attention to speed limit signs on the roadside and not to be as careless as I was.
