What to Do When Accumulating Over 12 Points on Your Driver's License?
1 Answers
After accumulating 12 points, the driver's license will be temporarily suspended, and within 15 days, you must report to the traffic management department at the place where the license was issued or where the violation occurred. You are required to participate in a 7-day theoretical course (Subject 1) and take the corresponding exam. Passing the exam will clear the points and return the driver's license; otherwise, you will need to continue studying and retake the exam. Here are the relevant details: 1. You cannot wait for the points to reset after reaching 12 points: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," if a driver's license has points deducted, the driver must handle the violations and pay the fines within the current scoring cycle. Otherwise, the points will carry over to the next cycle. If 12 points are accumulated, the license will be suspended, and the driver must attend a designated course and pass the exam to clear the points. Otherwise, the points will not reset with the new scoring cycle. 2. Consequences of failing to attend the course on time: If you do not attend the course on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the place where the license was issued or where the violation occurred within the specified time, or if you refuse to participate, the traffic management department of the public security authority will announce the suspension of your driver's license.
