What is the process of using someone else's driver's license for demerit points?
2 Answers
The process of using someone else's driver's license for demerit points is: 1. To use someone else's driver's license for demerit points, the license holder must personally bring their driver's license, ID card, and the vehicle's driving license to the violation handling hall for processing; 2. Submit your own driving license along with the borrowed driver's license and ID card to the staff, who will retrieve the violation record for confirmation; 3. Once the violation is confirmed to be yours, the staff will print the penalty decision form. Then, take the penalty decision form to the designated bank to pay the fine. After payment, the violation record will be cleared; 4. The fine must be paid within 15 days of receiving the penalty decision form. After 15 days, a late fee of 3% per day will be charged, but the total late fee cannot exceed the total amount of the fine.
I'm Old Zhang with 30 years of driving experience, sharing a true story: A friend tried to use someone else's license for demerit points, got caught, ended up with doubled fines and a ruined credit score. Taking penalty points for others is absolutely illegal—strictly prohibited by China's traffic laws. If caught, you could face thousands in fines, license suspension, or even jail time. The correct procedure is to take responsibility for your own violations: handle the ticket either at the traffic management department or via the 12123 App. If you believe it's unjust, gather evidence to appeal. Avoid shortcuts—cultivate safe driving habits, check violation records regularly to save money and peace of mind. Being honest benefits both your family and society.
