The driver's safe driving record is not permanently recorded; it will be reset after each scoring cycle. Here are the details about the driver's safe driving record: 1. The driver's safe driving record serves as a monitoring tool to encourage safe driving practices. 2. Log in to the official website of the provincial vehicle management department in your location, check the driver's information, and look for relevant options or services. 3. You can also directly visit the driver service window at the vehicle management office to request this record. Process to view the driver's safe driving record: 1. Open the installed Traffic Management 12123 App, click to enter, and log in. 2. On the Traffic Management 12123 homepage, locate "Driver's License" at the top and click to enter. 3. In the "My Driver's License" interface, select "Driver's Safe Driving Record" and click to enter. 4. In the "Driver's Safe Driving Record" interface, click "Apply for Inquiry" at the bottom. 5. Select "Confirm" in the pop-up dialog box. 6. Return to the "Driver's Safe Driving Record" interface, where it will display "Processing." Wait for the system to automatically generate the record, and then you can view it.
Personally, I believe that a driver's safe driving record is usually not permanent, mainly because it needs to be regularly updated and cleared in accordance with traffic regulations. From what I understand, in places like China, records of traffic violations or accidents are generally retained for a few years. For example, minor infractions might be cleared after 3-5 years, while more serious offenses like drunk driving could stay on record longer, but none of these are kept forever. This design is quite reasonable because it gives drivers a chance to start fresh without being burdened by past mistakes indefinitely. In practical terms, it affects insurance premiums—better records mean lower rates, but the impact diminishes once the records expire. I recommend driving cautiously, developing a habit of regularly checking official apps to ensure the accuracy of your records, which can also help save some money. The logic behind not making these records permanent is to protect privacy and encourage safe driving behavior, so there's no need to worry too much about it.
