What to Do When Your Driver's License Points Are Depleted?
1 Answers
Handling methods when a driver's license accumulates 12 penalty points: 1. For Class A and B licenses: Direct downgrade upon reaching 12 points: For holders of Class A or B licenses, accumulating 12 points within a scoring cycle will result in the vehicle management authority revoking their highest permitted driving category. They must complete downgrade procedures within 30 days. 2. For Class C licenses: Retake the theory test (Subject 1) upon reaching 12 points: If a driver's license is penalized with 12 points (including exactly 12 or more than 12 but less than 24 points), the license will be temporarily suspended. The driver must retake and pass the theory test before being allowed to drive again. Driving during this suspension period is considered unlicensed driving. During the probationary period with 12 points: 1. For Class A and B licenses: Revocation and downgrade: If a driver accumulates 12 points during the probationary period for a Class A or B license, their probationary driving qualification for that category will be revoked. If the revoked qualification is not for the highest permitted category, the highest category will also be revoked. Additionally, for Class A and B license holders, accumulating more than 6 but less than 12 points during the probationary period will extend the probation by one year. 2. For Class C licenses: License revocation: If a Class C license holder accumulates 12 points during the probationary period, their probationary driving qualification will be revoked.
