2 Answers
A driver's license with 12 points deducted must be processed within 15 days. The driver is required to attend a seven-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security authority in the place where the driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred within 15 days. After completing the study session, the vehicle management office will conduct an examination (i.e., the subject one test) within 20 days. If the test is passed, the points will be cleared. More relevant information is as follows: 1. If the driver fails to attend the seven-day study session within 15 days as required: According to Article 48 of Order No. 111, when the vehicle management office issues a replacement motor vehicle driver's license, if it is found that the driver has the above-mentioned situation, a new driver's license will not be issued. The driver can only obtain a new license after completing the education and examination. If the driver refuses to attend the study session notified by the traffic management department of the public security authority or refuses to take the examination, the traffic police department will announce the suspension of the driver's license. Continuing to drive in violation of the regulations will result in a warning or a fine. 2. Notes: If a motor vehicle driver has more than two instances of reaching 12 points or accumulates more than 24 points in a scoring cycle, the vehicle management office must also conduct a road driving skills test within 10 days after passing the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge examination. The road driving skills test should be conducted according to the highest permissible driving model specified on the driver's license. It is important to note that if the points exceed 12 but are less than 24 in a scoring cycle, only the regulations training and examination are required. However, if the violation points reach 24 or more in a scoring cycle, the driver must not only attend the subject one test training but also re-attend the subject three test training. Only after passing all tests can the driver regain the driver's license.
Sigh, I've personally experienced the situation of having 12 points deducted from my driver's license. That day I received a penalty notice, with accumulated points reaching 12. I had to report to the vehicle management office within 15 days, attend a 7-day training course, and then take a theoretical test. If not handled on time, the license would be suspended, plus a fine of several hundred yuan. If caught driving during this period, I could even face detention. I delayed a few days back then, but fortunately went on the 14th day, passed the exam, and got my points cleared. My advice to other drivers in similar situations: act quickly, don't delay too long. Common mistakes in daily life include accumulating points from speeding or drunk driving - handle these promptly, otherwise not only will you be unable to drive, but your work commute will also be significantly affected.
