Is the Driver's License Nationally Valid?
1 Answers
The driver's license, officially known as the motor vehicle driving license and commonly referred to as a 'driver's license,' is a certificate required by law for individuals operating motor vehicles. It serves as a legal document issued by the authorities, permitting qualified individuals who have studied and mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the relevant examinations, to operate specific types of motor vehicles. The driver's license is valid nationwide. Handling of Driver's License Point Deductions: If the traffic violation points accumulated within each scoring cycle (typically a 12-month period starting from the date of initial license issuance) do not exceed 12 points and there are no outstanding violations (any violations must be resolved), the points will automatically reset to zero at the start of the next cycle. For example, if the license review date is October 1st, as long as there are no unresolved violations and the points do not exceed 12 by that date, the points will reset on October 1st and will not carry over to the next cycle. However, if the points exceed 12 or there are unresolved violations, they will be carried over to the next cycle. For the first instance of accumulating 12 to 24 points (excluding 24), the driver only needs to pass the subject one exam to clear the traffic violation points. For drivers who accumulate 12 points or more twice or more within the same cycle, or accumulate a total of 24 points (inclusive) or more, they must pass both subject one and subject three exams each time before the traffic management department archives and clears the points. The traffic violation scoring cycle runs from the date of initial license issuance to the same date the following year. For example, if the initial license issuance date is April 1, 2011, the scoring cycle would be from April 1, 2011, to March 31, 2012.
