What to Do If the Driving License Points Have Not Been Reset on the Due Date?
3 Answers
Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, click on the points reset date on the page. If the points have not been reset by the due date, click 'Refresh Now'. Points reset requires all traffic violations on the driving license to be fully processed, and the bank and traffic management department to successfully reconcile accounts before updating. The platform data will be uploaded, and you can check again after one day. Below are precautions for using a driving license: 1. Driving licenses have an expiration date: A driving license is only valid for legal road use within its expiration period. If the license expires and you have not renewed it, driving on the road is considered illegal. 2. Avoid accumulating 12 penalty points within 12 months: A driving license has 12 points that can be deducted within 12 months. Be sure to avoid accumulating all 12 points within this period, otherwise you will need to attend a course at the local vehicle management office and take an exam afterward. If you fail the exam, you must retake it until you pass before you can reclaim your driving license.
A few days ago, my cousin also ran into this issue - his points didn’t reset on the designated clearance date, which had him hopping mad. We put our heads together and figured the key was to check a few things: Were all violations properly processed? Were the fines fully paid? With system upgrades often causing delays these days, I told him to wait 3-5 days first. If there’s still no movement, he’d need to visit the DMV in person to check the original records since computer updates sometimes lag. By the way, the 12123 app now has an online customer service feature where you can submit appeal materials even at midnight—just upload the penalty notice and payment receipt. Turns out the DMV found he’d forgotten to pay a speeding fine from early that month. Once he settled it, his points were back to normal the next day. This kind of thing really can’t be put off, or it might cause trouble during the annual inspection.
Bro, I've encountered this situation too. It still showed points deducted a week after the clearing date. Mainly, you need to check three major areas: whether all fines have been fully credited to the bank, as some third-party payments may be delayed; all violations must be fully processed and closed, as the system won't refresh if any case remains open; and there's also the issue of system synchronization cycles—last time, it took three days for mine to reset. I recommend logging into the Traffic Management 12123 app first to check your processing records, focusing on any unpaid items. If you're unsure, just go to the local traffic violation office and swipe your ID—the staff can see real-time data on their computers. My neighbor found out he had an unpaid parking ticket from last year that wasn't fully processed, and his points reset the same day after handling it. Nowadays, with frequent upgrades to the traffic management system, data delays are quite common.
