What kind of traffic violation results in a 9-point deduction at once?
4 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.
A friend of mine got into trouble last year because of a one-time 9-point deduction. He committed a violation by obscuring his license plate, thinking he could avoid a ticket, but ended up being caught on camera and immediately lost 9 points, plus he had to retake the driving test. Other behaviors that could result in a 9-point deduction include illegal parking on highways or driving a vehicle that doesn't match the type of your driver's license—for example, driving a truck that requires a B2 license with only a C1 license. These might seem like minor issues, but they carry significant risks—losing a large number of points at once increases the likelihood of accidents and endangers both yourself and others. To avoid such situations, familiarize yourself with traffic rules, ensure your license plate is clearly visible before heading out, and use service areas for parking on highways. Don’t make the same mistake as my friend; developing good habits makes driving much safer.
A one-time deduction of 9 points for a traffic violation is quite serious, mainly for driving a vehicle that does not match the license, such as being caught driving a large truck with a small car license, which results in a 9-point deduction. Or covering the license plate or stopping randomly on the highway to unload goods will also result in a 9-point deduction. These behaviors are not minor offenses, and the cost of violation is high because the license points are limited. If too many points are deducted, you may have to retake the test or have your license revoked. I suggest checking your license and vehicle condition before driving and following traffic rules to avoid trouble—safety first.
