What to Do When You Don't Have Enough Driver's License Points?
2 Answers
When you don't have enough driver's license points, the only solution is to have your license revoked and reapply after passing the required tests. Below is relevant information about insufficient driver's license points: 1. Situations resulting in 12-point deduction: (1) Driving a motor vehicle that doesn't match your licensed vehicle type. (2) Driving under the influence of alcohol. (3) Operating a commercial passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with over 20% more passengers than the approved capacity. (4) Fleeing the scene of a traffic accident without constituting a crime. (5) Driving a motor vehicle without displaying license plates, or intentionally obscuring, damaging, or improperly installing license plates, etc. 2. Legal basis: Article 1 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law Violation Point System'.
It's indeed frustrating when your driver's license points are running low. Having driven for many years, I've seen many cases where too many points were deducted mainly due to frequent violations like speeding or drunk driving. When your points are nearly exhausted, you need to act quickly. In China, you can regain some points by participating in traffic safety education programs, such as online courses or offline training sessions. Remember to download the Traffic Management 12123 App to check your point balance in real time. Prevention is key: drive slower, obey speed limits, wear seat belts, and avoid using your phone to prevent being caught on camera. If you're short on points, don't panic—first, try to remedy the situation through education. Losing your license would be much more troublesome. Developing safe driving habits not only saves points but also protects yourself and others, making it a worthwhile long-term commitment.
