2 Answers
A cumulative score of 6 points on 12123 means that all traffic violation points accumulated in the current scoring cycle amount to 6 points. The driver's license scoring rules are as follows: 1. 12 points for a single violation: Driving under the influence of alcohol; driving during the period when the motor vehicle driving license is temporarily suspended; causing a traffic accident and fleeing the scene without constituting a crime; forcibly passing through traffic control without heeding dissuasion; using another person's motor vehicle driving license to drive a motor vehicle; driving a motor vehicle that does not match the permitted vehicle type; failing to pay fines for more than three months or failing to pay fines on time for two consecutive times. 2. 6 points for a single violation: Driving after drinking alcohol; highway passenger vehicles carrying more than 20% of the approved number of passengers or carrying cargo in violation of regulations; trucks carrying goods exceeding 30% of the approved load capacity or carrying passengers in violation of regulations; motor vehicles driving more than 50% over the speed limit; parking on the highway in violation of regulations; reversing, driving against traffic, or making U-turns across the central divider on the highway; testing or learning to drive a motor vehicle on the highway. 3. 3 points for a single violation: Violating traffic signals; driving below the minimum speed limit on the highway; towing a faulty or accident vehicle on the highway in violation of regulations; carrying passengers in the cargo compartment of a freight motor vehicle or on a two-wheeled motorcycle on the highway; riding or straddling the lane dividing line on the highway; driving on the highway in low visibility conditions without following regulations; driving a motor vehicle prohibited from entering the highway; overtaking in violation of regulations; failing to yield as required; towing a trailer in violation of regulations; failing to use lights and set up warning signs as required after a vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident on the road.
After years of driving, I've noticed many beginners are unclear about the point system on the 12123 APP. Accumulating 6 penalty points means your driver's license has been deducted 6 points in the traffic management system, indicating you've committed traffic violations such as speeding, not wearing a seatbelt, or running a red light—common mistakes. Deductions can start with one or two points, and slowly accumulating to 6 points becomes risky, as the total points on a license are 12. Exceeding this limit may require attending classes or retaking tests, and it can also affect insurance premiums. I recommend downloading the 12123 APP to regularly check your records, understand specific violations to improve your behavior, as safe driving is paramount. Don't underestimate this; accumulating too many points can easily lead to license suspension, especially in cities where driving stress is high and it's easy to inadvertently violate rules.
