What to Do When All Driving License Points Are Deducted?
2 Answers
If all points on your driving license are deducted, you should retake the subject one test. Below are the specific situations when all driving license points are deducted: 1. Retaking the test: For those holding a C-class license. Owners with a C-class license will have their license temporarily suspended and need to retake the subject one test. They can only drive again after passing the test. Driving during this period is considered unlicensed driving. For C-class license holders, if all 12 points are deducted during the probationary period, their probationary driving qualification for the permitted vehicle type will be revoked. 2. Direct downgrade: For those holding A or B-class licenses. Owners with A or B-class licenses will have their license directly downgraded if all 12 points are deducted. If all 12 points are deducted during the probationary period, their probationary driving qualification for the permitted vehicle type will be revoked. If the revoked driving qualification is not for the highest permitted vehicle type, their driving qualification for the highest permitted vehicle type will also be revoked.
My experience of having all my driver's license points deducted last year really taught me a lesson. I was driving too impatiently at the time, running several red lights and speeding, which resulted in all 12 points being wiped out at once. After that, I had to report to the local traffic management department, where they required me to attend a week-long traffic safety education course and pass a theoretical exam to get my license back. The course was quite exhausting, with daily lectures and homework, but I learned a lot about safe driving. Now I drive much more carefully, even signaling when changing lanes. Actually, the consequences of losing all points are significant—no driving in the short term, some fines, and increased insurance premiums. I suggest everyone not be as impulsive as I was; following the rules is the most hassle-free way.
