What to do if 3 points are deducted from a B2 driver's license?
2 Answers
B2 driver's license with 3 points deducted does not require an exam, but you need to participate in no less than three hours of study during the verification period. According to China's "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": Holders of large truck driver's licenses who have points deducted within a scoring cycle must participate in no less than three hours of study on road traffic safety laws and regulations, safe and civilized driving, emergency response, and other knowledge during verification, and receive case-based education on traffic accident warnings. The following are some regulations regarding the application and use of driver's licenses: 1. Scoring cycle rules: If a motor vehicle driver's points within a scoring cycle do not reach 12 and the imposed fines have been paid, the points will be cleared; if the points do not reach 12 but there are unpaid fines, the points will carry over to the next scoring cycle. 2. Verification rules: Holders of large passenger vehicle, tractor, city bus, medium-sized passenger vehicle, or large truck driver's licenses who have points deducted within a scoring cycle must participate in no less than three hours of study on road traffic safety laws and regulations, safe and civilized driving, emergency response, and other knowledge during verification, and receive case-based education on traffic accident warnings.
I've been driving trucks for over a decade, and getting 3 points deducted from a B2 license is no big deal, but you should handle it immediately—don't procrastinate. Figure out the reason for the deduction, like whether it was speeding or running a red light, and quickly pay the fine on the traffic management app to avoid accumulating interest. Three points won’t max out the 12-point limit, and they’ll reset automatically after a year. Use this time to take a free safety course, learn something new, and drive more steadily. Back when I got points deducted for drowsy driving, I attended a course and bought a fatigue monitoring device—now I drive much more alert. Keep track of the reset date; the app will remind you. Always pay attention to traffic signs, avoid speeding on small roads, and prioritize getting home safely. Don’t let a small point deduction turn into a major hassle.
