What to Do When 12 Points Are Deducted from Your Driver's License?
2 Answers
The solutions for having all 12 points deducted from your driver's license: 1. Large passenger and cargo vehicles: If a driver of a large passenger or cargo vehicle has all 12 points deducted, their highest-level driving qualification will be revoked. The driver must go to the local vehicle management office within 30 days to downgrade their driver's license. If the driver fails to complete the downgrade and license replacement within the specified time, the traffic management department will revoke their driving qualification for that vehicle type. 2. Ordinary small passenger vehicles: Owners of ordinary small passenger vehicles must report to the issuing authority of their motor vehicle driver's license or the traffic management department within 15 days to participate in a seven-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After passing the exam, they will regain their driver's license. 3. Note: If your driver's license is confiscated, you must report to the traffic management department for study within 15 days from the date of confiscation; otherwise, your license will be directly revoked.
Last time, because of repeated speeding, all my driver's license points were deducted, and I was completely stunned. I immediately reported to the traffic authorities, and they arranged for me to attend a seven-day safety training course, three hours every morning, covering traffic rule reviews, accident case analyses, and safe driving techniques. At the end of the course, there was a written test, and I had to score at least 80 to pass. Fortunately, I paid attention and passed on the first try. However, after passing, I had to wait for a 30-day probation period, during which I couldn’t violate any rules again, or it would be even more troublesome. The whole process took over a month. Now, I drive very carefully, installed a mobile app to remind me of speed limits, and I never dare to be careless again. This experience taught me to grow from my mistakes—driving is no joke, and protecting myself and others is crucial.
