The normal cumulative score for a driver's license is 0 points. Below is the relevant information about cumulative scores: 1. Accumulation cycle: The cumulative scoring cycle is 12 months, with a full score of 12 points. If all 12 points are deducted, the driver must participate in further study and exams. They must pass a driving skills test to regain their driver's license. 2. Types of penalties: There are five types, based on the severity of the traffic violation. The points deducted for a single violation can be: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point. If the license is used to handle vehicle violations, corresponding points will be recorded. If the vehicle has multiple violations, the points on the driver's license will accumulate.

A normal driver's license has a cumulative score of 12 points. I've been driving for several years, and at the start of each scoring cycle, the maximum score is always 12 points. If I don’t commit any violations within a year, the score automatically resets to 12 points by the end of the cycle. The scoring cycle usually starts from the date the license was issued and repeats every 12 months. Don’t take the points for granted just because they seem plentiful. Minor violations like illegal parking may only deduct 1 or 2 points, but serious offenses like excessive speeding (6 points) or drunk driving (12 points) can be dangerous. If your score exceeds 12 points, your license will be suspended, and you’ll have to attend safety education exams—what a hassle. I recommend everyone develop the habit of checking their points regularly using the Traffic Management 12123 App, pay attention to traffic rules while driving, and not wait until the points are almost gone to panic. Safety first ensures long-term driving enjoyment.

The normal cumulative points on a driver's license are 12, which is the full score. I often discuss traffic rules with my friends, and the system is designed quite scientifically: a scoring cycle lasts 12 months, starting with 12 points, and if no violations occur by the end, the score resets to 12. This means that under normal circumstances, the score is always 12. If points are deducted for a violation, such as 6 points for running a red light, it's important to adjust behavior promptly to avoid accumulating more than 12 points. Exceeding this limit will temporarily suspend the license, requiring mandatory training. Additionally, different violations carry different point deductions, so it's crucial to avoid speeding or drunk driving. Checking points via a mobile app is straightforward, helping to prevent issues. Maintaining a full 12 points is a responsible behavior for everyone, and safe driving should become second nature.

I just learned to drive and have been curious about the driver's license point system for a long time. After asking my driving instructor, I found out that the normal point allocation is 12 points. The points will automatically reset to 12 at the end of the scoring cycle, provided no violations were committed. For example, if you change lanes improperly, you might lose 3 points. Accumulating too many points is bad—exceeding 12 points means you'll have to retake the written test. At first, I was quite nervous, but now I try to drive carefully and follow the rules. I use an app to check my points to make sure I stay within the 12-point limit. Don't underestimate this small system—it reminds everyone to reduce violations and minimize accident risks, because safety is what truly matters.

How to Solve Low Engine Coolant Temperature?

Solutions for low engine coolant temperature: 1. Drive for a while to allow the temperature to rise, and try to avoid running the engine in high RPM zones; 2. Replace the thermostat. When the thermostat fails to close due to damage, it causes the engine cooling system to remain in a large circulation state at all times, ultimately leading to the engine temperature being too low and difficult to rise. When the engine starts cold, the coolant inside the engine is restricted to circulate within the engine water passages, which helps to quickly increase the engine temperature. When the engine reaches normal operating temperature, the thermostat opens (the thermostat acts as a valve for the engine's large and small circulation loops), allowing the coolant to flow from the engine water passages into the radiator. After being cooled by the radiator, it flows back to the engine to maintain the normal operating temperature of the engine.

How to Solve the Problem of Clogged Three-Way Catalytic Converter?

Solutions for clogged three-way catalytic converter: 1. Cleaning: During vehicle operation, exhaust gases from combustion can clog the three-way catalytic converter. Excessive clogging by impurities can reduce the converter's efficiency. Cleaning the converter to remove the clogged materials can restore its normal function. 2. Replacement: If cleaning does not restore normal function, replacement is necessary. The three-way catalytic converter is a device that converts harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx from vehicle exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. The core component of the three-way catalytic converter is a porous ceramic material installed in a specially designed exhaust pipe. The ceramic material itself does not participate in the catalytic reaction but is coated with precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, palladium, and rare earth coatings.
