Is the driver's license point reset at 12 o'clock on the same day?

Motor vehicle driver's license clearance cycle is at midnight the next day. Within each scoring cycle of a motor vehicle driver's license, which is one year, there are 12 points available. Motor vehicle drivers can normally handle traffic violations up to 11 points without affecting the calculation formula for motor vehicle driving: one scoring cycle = [initial license issuance date] + 12 months. If the points do not reach 12 within the scoring cycle, and the traffic violation is processed with fines paid, the points will be cleared. If fines remain unpaid, the points will carry over to the next cycle. Based on the severity of road traffic violations, the points deducted can be: 12, 6, 3, 2, or 1 point. Penalties and point deductions for motor vehicle drivers' road traffic violations are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver commits more than one violation at a time, the points should be calculated separately and accumulated. If a motor vehicle driver disagrees with the penalty for a road traffic violation and applies for administrative reconsideration or initiates an administrative lawsuit, and the original penalty decision is altered or revoked by legal ruling, the corresponding points will be adjusted or revoked accordingly. The traffic management department of the public security authority should publicly announce the method for motor vehicle drivers to query violation points and provide convenient query services.

The reset of driving license points isn't actually at midnight sharp – I think many people misunderstand this. The reset depends on the end date of your scoring cycle. For example, if your license cycle started on May 10th last year, the system will automatically reset your points around May 10th this year. However, the exact time may vary due to backend processing – it could happen at midnight, early morning, or any time, not necessarily at exactly 12 o'clock. As a long-haul driver, I've learned from experience not to obsess over the precise moment. Too many penalty points can affect your insurance, so driving safely is what truly matters. Before your cycle ends, check the Traffic Management 12123 app to confirm the reset date – don't wait until you run a red light to regret it. Overall, the date is key, the exact time is luck, and maintaining a low score is the smart choice for drivers. Regularly check your driving record to avoid speeding or violations – it keeps you worry-free and hassle-free.

The reset of driving license points doesn't actually happen at exactly 12 o'clock on the day, which confused me when I first started learning to drive. In reality, the reset is calculated based on the anniversary of your license issuance date. For example, if you got your license on June 1st, the points will automatically reset around June 1st the following year. However, the system processing time isn't fixed - it might occur at 1 AM or later, with no strict midnight rule. Having driven trucks for so many years, I've learned there's no need to obsess over the exact timing. What this mechanism does help with is reminding me to drive safely: no crossing lines or speeding, because serious point deductions can be disastrous. If you've accumulated points, remember to check the app before the reset to confirm your status. Ultimately, maintaining safe driving habits is infinitely more important than tracking the reset timing, and it also helps avoid insurance premium hikes.

The reset of driving license points is not directly related to 12 o'clock on the day; it occurs at the end date of your license cycle. For example, if your license start date is March 15th, then the system will reset on March 15th of the following year. The exact time might be midnight or another point, and it's not guaranteed to be exactly at 12 o'clock. What I learned from driving school is not to overthink it; safe driving is the most important thing. Accumulating too many points may lead to a temporary suspension of your license. Use this mechanism to regularly check your penalty points record; the period around the reset is the most prone to issues, so control your speed and avoid violations.
