Disadvantages of binding a driver's license to a non-owned vehicle: The owner of the driver's license will be held responsible for any accidents or traffic violations caused by the bound vehicle, resulting in unnecessary losses for the license owner. Additional information: Traffic violations refer to acts where motor vehicles violate the Road Traffic Safety Law and traffic management regulations. Penalties for traffic violations include warnings, fines (vehicle impoundment), temporary suspension of the driver's license, revocation of the driver's license, cancellation of the driver's license, administrative detention, and criminal liability for those who constitute a crime. Relevant regulations: Based on the severity of road traffic violations, the points deducted at one time are divided into five types: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, and 1 point. For motor vehicle drivers' road traffic violations, penalties and point deductions are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver commits two or more violations at one time, the points should be calculated separately and accumulated.
If I bind my driver's license to someone else's car, traffic violation points will be directly deducted from my license, damaging my credit and affecting future driver's license applications or driving privileges. In case of an accident, police and insurance companies may check the binding records and mistakenly assume I was the driver, holding me liable. This could lead to legal disputes, wasting time and money on court proceedings. A friend once shared a similar ordeal—after binding his license to another's vehicle, he got entangled in months of litigation over a minor accident. Don't cut corners by carelessly binding licenses; maintain clear legal boundaries by only linking to your own car to avoid these potential risks. This ensures safer driving and full compliance with regulations.
