What are the consequences of selling driver's license points?
1 Answers
According to regulations, individuals who accept traffic violation penalties and point deductions on behalf of actual drivers for economic gain will have their driver's license suspended for six months and be fined. Buying or selling driver's license points, whether as a buyer or seller, violates the 'Public Security Administration Punishment Law.' According to legal provisions, those who forge, conceal, or destroy evidence, provide false testimony, or falsely report cases, thereby affecting the lawful handling of cases by administrative law enforcement agencies, shall be detained for 5 to 10 days and fined. The traffic police department stated that according to new regulations such as the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses,' it is prohibited to evade point penalties for traffic violations through illegal activities such as buying or selling points or substituting points. 'For those involved in handling traffic violation services or buying and selling motor vehicle driver's license points, serious cases may be subject to criminal liability.' The traffic police department emphasized that such behavior, once detected, will result in administrative or criminal detention.
