What to Do When All 12 Points on Your Driver's License Are Deducted?
2 Answers
When all 12 points on your driver's license are deducted, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall confiscate your motor vehicle driver's license. The motor vehicle driver must then re-participate in a seven-day study and examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. If you pass the subject one exam, the points will be cleared, and your motor vehicle driver's license will be returned. If you fail the subject one exam, you will need to continue studying and retaking the exam. A driver's license, also known as a "driving license," is a document issued by the government's transportation department to individuals who qualify to drive. To obtain a driver's license, you must meet the required age and pass the driving test. The driver's license specifies the types of motor vehicles the holder is permitted to drive, such as motorcycles, passenger cars, trucks, buses, etc.
I remember last year when my driver's license was deducted a full 12 points, I was completely stunned. I immediately reported to the DMV, where they arranged for me to attend a 7-day traffic rules study class. Sitting in the classroom every day watching accident videos, the instructor's lectures gave me goosebumps. After the study session, I had to retake the written test (Subject 1), and I spent three consecutive days brushing through the question bank before passing. On the day I got my license back, I made sure to check the scoring cycle chart. Now when I drive, I brake early at yellow lights. I advise friends who get points deducted to check the 12123 APP promptly—delaying might even require retaking the road test. During this period, I relied entirely on taxis for travel, and it turned out to be much more expensive than traffic fines—totally not worth it.
