C1 driver's license deducted 12 points handling method: 1. If a C1 driver's license is deducted 12 points, the license will be confiscated. The driver needs to go to the traffic management department of the public security organ where the motor vehicle driver's license was issued or where the driver's illegal behavior occurred to receive road traffic safety regulations study for a total of 7 days (8 class hours per day). The total class hours generally need to be completed within 15 days. 2. Take the subject one exam. After passing the exam (90 points), the deducted points will be cleared and the driver's license will be returned. If the exam is failed, the driver needs to rebook and take the exam again until passing. 3. For cases where the points deducted exceed 12 points but are less than 24 points within one scoring cycle (one year), only the subject one exam is required. For cases where the points deducted reach 24 points, in addition to the subject one exam, the driver also needs to pass the subject three exam to retrieve the driver's license.
That time I accidentally sped and got consecutive penalty points, wiping out all 12 points—what a mess! The handling process was quite troublesome: first, I had to report to the local traffic police station within 15 days and enroll in a mandatory 7-day course. The classes covered traffic rules daily, along with shocking accident videos. After completing it, I had to pass the theoretical exam (Subject 1), requiring thorough practice of the question bank. Passing cleared the points and restored my license. The whole ordeal took over two weeks, costing around 800 yuan in tuition and exam fees, plus lost wages from taking leave. A word of advice: always watch for speed limits, avoid running red lights or drunk driving, and build safe habits to spare yourself this hassle. A real lesson learned the hard way!
