What to Do If 12 Points Are Deducted During the Probationary Period of a Driver's License?

[VonBarrett]

If 12 points are deducted, the driving qualification for the probationary model will be revoked. Here are some precautions for driving during the probationary period: 1. Driving alone on highways is not allowed during the probationary period: Many people think that driving on highways is not allowed during the probationary period. In fact, during the probationary period, you just cannot drive alone on highways. As long as there is a driver with more than 3 years of driving experience accompanying you in the front passenger seat, it is allowed. Otherwise, you will be fined 200 yuan. 2. Failing to display a "Probationary" sign on the rear of the vehicle will result in a 200 yuan fine: On one hand, drivers during the probationary period must display a "Probationary" or "Novice" sign on the rear of the vehicle. Failing to do so will result in a 200 yuan fine. On the other hand, it is absolutely forbidden to drive commercial vehicles, ambulances, rescue vehicles, and other special vehicles.

During my probationary period, my driver's license was also deducted 12 points, which was really frustrating! The solution is to report to the local traffic management department, pay all the fines, and they will revoke your driver's license on the spot. After that, you need to re-register for the driver's test, starting from the written test (subject one) and including both theoretical and practical exams, which will cost around one to two thousand yuan. The whole process may take about a month, which is quite time-consuming. I suggest you pay attention to speed limits and traffic signals next time you drive. The risk of point deductions is high during the probationary period, and checking your violation records regularly can help prevent issues in advance.

I just got my driver's license and already got points deducted during the probationary period—a hard lesson learned. Losing all 12 points means immediate license suspension, requiring you to stop driving. You must promptly report to traffic police to handle the violation, pay the fine, and then retake the driving test. The whole process is quite troublesome, as the exam might be more difficult, and it could also affect your insurance premiums. Looking back, speeding or illegal lane changes are common causes. It's best for new drivers to have an experienced driver supervise their driving.

I've been through this situation before. Losing 12 points during the probation period is really bad! First, go to the DMV to pay the fine. After your license is revoked, you'll need to retake the exam before you can drive again. Use navigation apps to remind you of speed limits while driving, and don't carelessly run red lights. Regularly review traffic rules to prevent losing all your points. Safety comes first - treat the probation period as a practice phase.
