What to Do When a Driver Has Only 6 Points Left and Gets Penalized Another 6 Points?
2 Answers
If the traffic police find a violation and the driver's license is processed for the violation, it will be revoked, requiring the driver to retake the driver's license test. If the traffic police issue an on-site penalty and the driver's license accumulates 12 points, the driver must attend "full-point education" and then take the subject one test. After passing the test, the points can be cleared.
I've been driving for over 20 years and encountered many similar situations. If your driver's license has only 6 points left and you're penalized with another 6-point deduction, this means the total points reach or exceed the 12-point limit, and your license will be temporarily suspended, prohibiting you from driving. In this case, you must act immediately: First, contact the local traffic police department or confirm your penalty point status through the 12123 APP; Second, enroll in a traffic safety training course, which usually involves a week of training on traffic regulations and a test. Passing the exam can partially restore your points, but don't delay too long or you may face fines or even harsher penalties. Pay attention to your driving habits—avoid speeding, don't use your phone while driving, and regularly check your points via apps to prevent accumulation. Safe driving is key. If your points max out, take a break to reflect—it's about being responsible for everyone on the road.
