What to Do When Your Driver's License Points Are Deducted by Others?

[FinleyDella]

According to regulations, if your driver's license accumulates 12 penalty points within a cycle, as long as it is not directly revoked due to drunk driving, you only need to retake the subject one test to regain your license. The specific details regarding license point deductions are as follows: 1. Within 15 days after accumulating 12 points: Within 15 days after accumulating 12 points, go to the traffic police station to receive the penalty notice, then attend a 5-day 'Road Traffic Safety Laws, Regulations, and Related Knowledge' training organized by the traffic management department. After completing the training, take the 'Training Completion Certificate' issued by the traffic police to the vehicle management office. The office will schedule the subject one test within the next 20 days. Passing the test successfully will allow you to regain a full-point driver's license. 2. If the replenished 12 points are deducted again: In addition to completing the above steps, you must also pass the subject three test to regain your license.

I've been driving for many years, and once all my points were deducted when a relative borrowed my car—what a headache. I went straight to the traffic police station to report, and the staff told me that once all 12 points are deducted, you have to attend classes—seven consecutive days of traffic safety education, covering rule explanations and accident video lessons. Finally, you must pass an exam to get your license back. During that time, not having a car was exhausting, commuting by public transport. So now I’ve learned my lesson—I regularly check my points via a mobile app to monitor them and avoid lending my car or points to others. I also drive more carefully now, avoiding violations to prevent such hassles. This experience made me value safe driving even more—after all, losing points is no joke; it can seriously disrupt daily life.

As a working professional who drives daily, I fully understand the consequences of having all points deducted. If someone fraudulently uses up all 12 points on your behalf, the first step is not to panic—verify the reason for the deduction by checking records on the traffic management app. Then, contact the local traffic police department to apply for a safety education course, which typically lasts 5-7 days and can be completed either in-person or online, focusing on traffic regulations and accident prevention. Passing the exam will allow you to renew your license. Be aware that fines may apply during this process, so avoid delays in handling the matter. I recommend developing the habit of regularly checking your point status on the app and enabling notification alerts. Also, educate friends not to misuse points. While this may seem minor, it directly impacts driving safety—prompt action can prevent more serious legal issues.

I'm a young driver who just got my license two years ago. A friend said his points were all deducted by an online scammer. To resolve it directly online, open the Traffic Management 12123 App and sign up for a learning course. Choose video learning or an online exam, and passing the test will automatically restore your points. No need to queue up on-site. Don't worry if your points are all deducted; the process is simple: log in to the App, apply for learning, attend the class, and pass the exam. Always drive carefully, avoid speeding and running red lights; use the App to monitor point changes and prevent misuse. This experience teaches you to grow up—distinguish between true and false friends in the future, and prioritize safety.
