What to Do When 12 Points Are Deducted?
1 Answers
If 12 points are deducted from your driver's license, you must undergo theoretical knowledge training and pass an exam to regain your license. If you exceed 12 points more than twice within a scoring cycle, you will also need to take a road test. After 12 points are deducted and your license is suspended, you must go to the issuing authority of your driver's license within 15 days to attend a 7-day training program on road traffic safety laws and related knowledge. Legal Basis: Article 68, Paragraphs 1 and 2 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 139): If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall suspend their motor vehicle driver's license. The driver must report to the traffic management department of the public security authority at the place where the driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred within 15 days to attend a 7-day training program on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the training, the vehicle management office will conduct an exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If the driver passes, the points will be cleared, and the license will be returned. Those who fail must continue training and retake the exam. Drivers who neither attend the training nor take the exam will have their licenses declared unusable by the traffic management department of the public security authority.
