1 Answers
Reasons for driver's license downgrade: Receiving 12 or more penalty points within one scoring cycle. Being involved in a major accident resulting in death and bearing 50% or more responsibility. Receiving penalty points for three consecutive scoring cycles without participating in the review. When reaching 60 years of age, the driver's license will automatically be downgraded to a C1 license. A driver's license, also known as a 'driving license,' is a document issued by the government transportation department to individuals qualified to drive, typically in the form of a card. To obtain a driver's license, one must meet the minimum age requirement and pass a driving test. The license usually specifies the types of motor vehicles the holder is permitted to drive, such as motorcycles, passenger cars, trucks, buses, etc. If a driver holding a license for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, or large trucks meets any of the above conditions, the vehicle management office shall revoke their highest permitted driving category and notify the driver to complete the downgrade and license replacement procedures within thirty days. After completing the downgrade and license replacement procedures, if the driver wishes to apply for reinstatement of the revoked driving category, they must have no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in the current scoring cycle and the most recent one before application, and must not have been involved in any fatal accident where they bore equal or greater responsibility. Procedure for revoking the highest permitted driving category and completing the downgrade and license replacement: After passing the relevant examination, receive the 'Notification of Illegal Full-Point Examination Information for Motor Vehicle Drivers' (for A and B class licenses, the downgrade information will be noted on the notification). After the suspension period ends, bring the ID card and the 'Notification of Illegal Full-Point Examination Information for Motor Vehicle Drivers' to the traffic police department where the license was suspended to retrieve the driver's license. Bring the following materials to the issuing vehicle management office to complete the downgrade and license replacement procedures (if there are no pending traffic violations, the process will be completed within one working day): Original 'Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form.' Original and copy of the driver's identity proof. Original motor vehicle driver's license. Three recent front-facing, bareheaded, white-background color ID photos (if local regulations require submission of a digital photo collection receipt, please submit it as well).
