What are the new regulations for driver's license points deduction?

[DeDakota]

Regarding the new regulations for driver's license points deduction: The driver's license will be deducted 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point based on the severity of the road traffic violation. A common violation like running a red light results in a deduction of 6 points. Drunk driving leads to an immediate deduction of 12 points. 5 types of violations result in a 1-point deduction: Failure to carry the vehicle license or driver's license; vehicle not displaying the annual inspection sticker; vehicle not displaying the traffic insurance sticker; improper use of lights and hazard lights. The passenger not wearing a seatbelt results in a 1-point deduction and a fine. 3 types of violations result in a 2-point deduction: Cutting in line during traffic congestion or occupying the opposite lane; not waiting at the designated lane for traffic lights; overloading by less than 20%.

I've been driving for years and find the new point deduction rules for driver's licenses quite user-friendly. Nowadays, speeding less than 20% on regular roads may result in no points or fewer points deducted, but exceeding 20% on highways will cost you 6 points, which is stricter than before. The most appealing part is that through the 'Traffic Management 12123' mobile app, you can take traffic safety courses and exams to reduce points, with a maximum reduction of 6 points. This is very friendly to those who occasionally make mistakes. However, the total points remain unchanged at 12, and accumulating more than 12 points means you'll have to go back to driving school for study or exams. I recommend everyone to develop the habit of checking their points regularly to avoid forgetting after driving. After all, safe driving is a responsibility to yourself and your family. It's also important to check your vehicle's condition before each trip, as these small habits can reduce the risk of point deductions.

As an experienced driver who has driven in all kinds of road conditions, I find the new regulations more considerate than before. Some penalty point rules have been adjusted: for example, speeding within 20% in urban areas may not incur points, but highway speeding is stricter; also, illegal parking may only deduct 1 point, which is lighter. A positive addition is the study-based point reduction feature—spending a few minutes answering questions on an app can eliminate some points, up to 6 points, without much effort. However, points are automatically reset at the end of each cycle, so don’t make violations a habit. I’d like to remind new drivers that if you accumulate 12 points during the probationary period, you’ll have to retake the theoretical course, which is a big hassle. Remember, driving slowly ensures safety, avoid rushing and causing trouble—safety comes above all else.

As a young and enthusiastic driver, I'm particularly interested in the new regulation about reducing penalty points through app learning. If you've been penalized with points, you can download the 'Traffic Management 12123' app, take a traffic safety test on your phone, and upon passing, reduce 1 point. Each person can do this up to 6 times. The penalty point rules have also changed: speeding between 10% to 20% over the limit may result in no or fewer points deducted, but exceeding speed limits on highways will cost you 6 points. The total points remain unchanged at 12, and accumulating more than that requires attending classes. I advise young drivers to avoid speeding, pay more attention to speed limit signs, and drive more steadily.
