What to Do After Losing All 12 Points?
3 Answers
You should go to the issuing authority of your motor vehicle driving license within 15 days to participate in a 7-day study program on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study program, the vehicle management office should conduct an examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days.
I've been driving for over twenty years and have encountered many novice drivers asking me about this. If you accumulate twelve penalty points all at once, it's no small trouble. You need to promptly report to the local DMV, bring your ID and driver's license, and attend a seven-day traffic safety education and training program. Listen attentively and take notes. After completing the training, you'll need to pass the theoretical test (Subject One) to restore your driving privileges. If you delay handling it, your license might be revoked, which would be even worse. Always be cautious while driving—don't speed, don't drink and drive, and obey traffic rules—that's the golden rule. This process can help you reflect on your driving habits and improve safety, as road safety ensures peace of mind for the whole family.
When I was young and just started driving, I didn't know the rules well and ended up getting my license points maxed out due to speeding and illegal parking. I was so anxious at the time, but luckily I consulted a friend who advised me to deal with it immediately. The process was actually simple: my license was temporarily suspended, I had to attend a few days of traffic classes at a designated location, review traffic rules intensively, and then take a test. It took me two weeks to sort it out. Although the fine of a few hundred bucks stung a bit, I learned my lesson. Remember not to panic at this juncture, and definitely don't drive secretly—driving without a license has even worse consequences. Next time, drive slower and use navigation alerts more often—it's effortless that way.
