What kind of traffic violation results in a 9-point deduction at once?
2 Answers
Having 9 points deducted from a driver's license at once is considered a compound violation. Here are the relevant details: 1. Regulations: According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses,' penalties and point deductions for motor vehicle drivers' road traffic violations are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver commits two or more violations at once, the points should be calculated separately and accumulated. The 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses' is an authoritative administrative decree issued by the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China, guiding the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses. 2. Speed limits: Driving a motor vehicle on roads other than highways or urban expressways at speeds exceeding 50% of the prescribed limit, or illegally parking or occupying emergency lanes or shoulders on highways or urban expressways, results in a 9-point deduction.
Most of the 9-point deductions at once are for serious violations. I've seen many drivers penalized for driving vehicles beyond their license class—for example, having only a car license but driving a heavy truck, which results in an immediate 9-point deduction if caught by the police. Another common violation is intentionally covering or dirtying the license plate to evade cameras, but getting caught also leads to a 9-point deduction. Illegal parking on highways, such as picking up or dropping off passengers or loading/unloading cargo outside designated service areas, often incurs a 9-point penalty. These behaviors are quite risky because the total points on a license are only 12. After losing 9 points, only 3 remain, and one more minor mistake could lead to revocation. Checking your vehicle's condition before driving and avoiding such tricks can save a lot of trouble—safe driving is the real principle.
