What to Do When Your Driver's License Accumulates 12 Points?
1 Answers
Individuals whose driver's licenses have accumulated 12 points must report to the traffic management department at the place where the license was issued or where the violation occurred within 15 days to undergo a one-week course on road traffic safety knowledge and obtain a training certificate. Subsequently, they should register for a scheduled exam at the designated location and participate in the theoretical test for Subject 1 with their ID card and training certificate. For Class A and B licenses, accumulating 12 points will result in an automatic downgrade. If the points reach 12 twice, even after passing the retest process to regain the license, the highest permitted vehicle class will be revoked. Here are detailed regulations regarding driver's licenses: Article 78 of the "Ministry of Public Security Order No. 139" stipulates: For drivers holding licenses for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, or large trucks, if their points accumulate to 12 within one scoring cycle, the vehicle management office shall revoke their highest permitted vehicle class qualification and process the downgrade and license replacement within 30 days. Article 68 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states: If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points or more twice within one scoring cycle or accumulates 24 points or more in total, the vehicle management office must also conduct a road driving skills test within 10 days after the driver passes the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. The road driving skills test will be conducted according to the highest permitted vehicle class specified on the driver's license.
