What Are the Consequences of a 6-Point Deduction?
1 Answers
A 6-point deduction on your driver's license has no impact as long as you do not accumulate 12 points within one cycle. According to regulations: If a motor vehicle driver's accumulated points do not reach 12 within a scoring cycle and all fines have been paid, the points will be cleared. However, if there are unpaid fines even if the points are below 12, the points will carry over to the next scoring cycle. The following behaviors result in a one-time 6-point deduction, as detailed below: 1. Driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signals (previously 3 points). 2. Operating a commercial passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by less than 20%, or driving other passenger vehicles with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by more than 20%. 3. Driving medium-sized or larger passenger vehicles or hazardous material transport vehicles on highways or urban expressways at speeds exceeding the limit by less than 20%. 4. Driving medium-sized or larger passenger vehicles or hazardous material transport vehicles on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles at speeds exceeding the limit by more than 20% but less than 50%.
