Car steering wheel locked and unable to start reasons and solutions are as follows: 1. Reason for steering wheel lock: The steering wheel lock is a simple anti-theft feature. When the car is turned off, turning the steering wheel from the centered position to one direction (usually to the left) by a certain angle will cause the steering wheel to make a "click" sound and lock. 2. How to unlock the steering wheel: First, insert the key and press the brake, then turn the steering wheel left and right. Although the steering wheel is in a locked state at this time, it can still be slightly turned. While turning the steering wheel, turn the key to complete the steering wheel unlocking procedure.

What does a cumulative score of 3 points on a driver's license mean?

A cumulative score of 3 points on a driver's license means that 3 points have been deducted for violating traffic regulations. How points are recorded on a driver's license: 1. The scoring cycle is 12 months, meaning each year is a scoring cycle. Traffic management authorities impose penalty points for violations, and these points are accumulated within each scoring cycle. 2. If the points in a scoring cycle do not reach 12 and the driver has paid all fines for the violations, the points will be cleared. If the fines are not paid, the points will automatically carry over to the next scoring cycle. 3. If the total penalty points reach or exceed 12 within a scoring cycle, the driver's license will be confiscated by the traffic management authorities. The driver will need to retake the study of road traffic safety laws and regulations, and upon passing the exam, the points will be cleared and the license returned. If the exam is not passed, the driver must continue studying and retaking the exam. 4. If a driver reaches 12 points or more twice within a scoring cycle, they must not only retake the study of laws and regulations but also participate in driving skills training and exams. Upon passing the exam, the points will be cleared and the license returned; otherwise, the driver must continue studying and retaking the exam. 5. If a driver reaches 12 points and refuses to participate in the study of regulations and exams, their driver's license will be suspended.

What to Do When 12 Points Are Deducted from Your Driver's License? Can Someone Else Take the Deduction?

After 12 points are deducted from your driver's license, you must go to the traffic management department within 15 days to obtain an 'admission notice' and undergo a one-week road safety knowledge training. After completing the training, you must pass an assessment. Only upon passing the assessment can you regain your driver's license. If you fail the assessment, you will need to continue learning, and you cannot have someone else take the deduction for you. Below are common traffic violations: 1. Running a red light: Running a red light is the most common violation. Since the introduction of the new traffic regulations, running a red light results in a one-time deduction of 6 points; 2. Driving without a license: For driving during the period when the driver's license is temporarily suspended, a fine and 15-day detention will be imposed. For driving without obtaining a driver's license or driving with a revoked license, a 15-day detention and a fine will be imposed; 3. Overloading or overcapacity: For passenger vehicles exceeding the rated capacity by less than 20% or freight vehicles exceeding the approved load by less than 30%, a fine will be imposed. For passenger vehicles exceeding the rated capacity by 20% or freight vehicles exceeding the approved load by 30%, a fine will be imposed; 4. Drunk driving: For driving under the influence of alcohol, a three-month suspension of the driver's license and a fine will be imposed. For driving a commercial vehicle under the influence of alcohol, a three-month suspension of the driver's license and a fine will be imposed; 5. Speeding: For driving 50% over the speed limit, a fine and revocation of the driver's license will be imposed.

How to Handle More Than 12 Points Deducted from Driver's License?

Handling Methods: 1. If 12 points are deducted during the probationary period, the driver's license will be invalidated, and the driver must re-learn and obtain a new license. 2. If 12 points are deducted after the probationary period, the driver can take the subject one exam after completing online and on-site learning organized by the Vehicle Management Office. Upon passing, the points can be cleared, and the driver's license record will be reset to zero. Below is additional information: 1. Driver's license point deduction is a penalty for traffic violations. Depending on the severity of the violation, points range from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 12 per offense. The deduction cycle is one inspection period. If a driver accumulates 12 points in one cycle, they lose their driving privileges and must undergo at least 7 days of traffic safety education. Only after passing the exam can their driving privileges be restored. 2. Point deduction serves to enforce compliance with traffic safety laws, thereby reducing the incidence of traffic accidents. However, in practice, the penalty lacks seriousness and standardization, making the point deduction system merely a formality. 3. The deduction cycle starts from the date the driver's license was obtained. For example, if the license was obtained on November 4th, then November 4th marks the start of the deduction cycle, which ends on November 3rd of the following year. 4. If the points deducted in one cycle do not reach 12 and all fines are paid before the cycle ends, the system will automatically reset the points to zero at the start of the next cycle.
