What to Do If a Novice Driver Gets 6 Points Deducted?
2 Answers
If a novice driver with a Class C driver's license has 6 points deducted but less than 12 points, they only need to promptly handle the traffic violation at the traffic police station and pay the fine, which has little impact. However, if a novice driver with a Class A or B driver's license accumulates more than 6 points but less than 12 points during the probation period, the probation period will be extended by one year. Below are the basic rules for driving: 1. Display a probation sign during the probation period: During the probation period, placing a probation sign on the vehicle helps remind surrounding vehicles to keep a distance or yield to the probation vehicle, reducing the probability of traffic accidents. If the probation sign is not displayed and caught by traffic police, fines and point deductions will be imposed. 2. Prohibition of driving without a license plate: Driving without a license plate or proper documentation will result in the vehicle being impounded, a fine of 200 yuan, and 12 points deducted. If the license plate is carried in the vehicle but not displayed, and all documents are complete, generally only points will be deducted and a fine imposed (200 yuan and 12 points), without impounding the vehicle.
I just got 6 points deducted last month when I was caught speeding, and I was completely stunned at the time. I immediately opened the traffic management app 12123 to check the violation video for confirmation and went to the bank to pay the fine the next day. Later, I made it a habit to watch half an hour of traffic safety learning videos every day to earn points back, and even adjusted the sensitivity of my dashcam higher. Now, whenever I see a speed limit sign while driving, I instinctively hit the brakes, and I've even replaced my car music with traffic rule voice reminders. I recommend that after getting points deducted, everyone should watch the violation footage three times—that sense of lingering fear is more effective than any reminder.
