What does abnormal driver's license status mean?
3 Answers
An abnormal driver's license status includes situations such as overdue license renewal or failure to undergo annual inspection. There are several circumstances under which a driver's license status may be displayed as abnormal. An abnormal vehicle registration certificate status means that the vehicle's license plate number has been reported as lost, stolen, or involved in an unresolved traffic accident, etc., and will be recorded by the vehicle management department as "abnormal status". Traffic violations: This means the vehicle has committed traffic violations that have not yet been processed by the relevant authorities; Failure to undergo annual inspection: Not undergoing the annual inspection within the specified time or failing to renew the driver's license after expiration; 12-point deduction: If 12 points are deducted within one scoring cycle without attending required training and tests, the driver's license status will be displayed as abnormal.
I know this well! Driver's license issues usually fall into three categories: either there's a problem with the license itself, like it's expired and not renewed or it's a fake that got caught; or you've racked up too many points, like losing all 12 points and getting suspended; or there's incorrect information, like a misspelled name or an outdated address you didn't update. Sometimes, if you're caught by cameras seriously speeding or drunk driving, they'll lock your file on the spot. Last time, I heard about a friend who lent their car to someone else to take points, and the system flagged it as suspicious activity, freezing the license. Nowadays, the Traffic Management 12123 APP is super useful—just log in to see the exact reason for the lock, then take your ID to the DMV to re-register and sort it out.
It's quite frustrating when your driver's license suddenly becomes unusable. The most common reason is misremembering the renewal date, leading to expiration and invalidation if not addressed within six months. I've encountered young drivers who just got their licenses and drove recklessly, accumulating three speeding violations that required mandatory retraining. Others carelessly lost their licenses without reporting, only realizing something was wrong when points were fraudulently deducted. Recent regulations have cracked down on point-deduction proxies, with the system automatically flagging cases where three different licenses deduct points for the same vehicle within three months. Also, an expired medical certificate without renewal will show as abnormal, especially for friends over 60 who need to pay attention to vision re-examination deadlines.
