If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall detain their motor vehicle driver's license. Below is some relevant information from the traffic laws regarding driver's license point deductions: 1. Handling of two 6-point violations: You can first address one 6-point violation record, as general violation records are registered on the motor vehicle, not on the driver's license. Therefore, you can handle one 6-point violation first. However, if both violations are on-the-spot tickets issued by traffic police, the driver's license is usually already detained, and you will need to attend full-point education at the traffic police department. 2. Handling when 12 points are insufficient: According to relevant regulations, if a driver's license accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, the motor vehicle driver must, within 15 days, go to the traffic police department or the place where the license was issued to complete a 7-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study, they must take the subject one exam. Only after passing the exam can the points be cleared and the driver's license returned.

How to Solve the Abnormal Noise When Stepping on the Brake in P Gear?

P gear stepping on the brake and hearing a "click" sound does not necessarily mean the vehicle has a malfunction. The following two situations can cause this phenomenon: 1. The limit relay is operating: The function of the limit relay is to prevent the driver from shifting gears by mistake. If the driver does not step on the brake, the vehicle's limit relay will lock, and the vehicle cannot shift gears. If the driver steps on the brake at this time, the limit relay will disconnect and make a "click" sound, and then the vehicle can shift gears. This is a very normal phenomenon. 2. The vehicle is parked on a slope: When the vehicle is parked on a slope and shifted into P gear, a similar sound may also occur. The main reason is that when shifted into P gear, the transmission lock structure is not yet in place. After releasing the brake, the vehicle will slide back slightly, and the transmission lock mechanism will fully engage, making a similar sound during engagement. The solutions for the abnormal noise when stepping on the brake in P gear are as follows: 1. Pay attention to the operation sequence when parking on a slope: The correct way to park on a slope is to stop by stepping on the brake - pull up the handbrake - release the foot brake - shift into P gear after the vehicle is completely stopped. Avoid shifting into P gear before pulling up the handbrake. 2. Replace the limit relay: If the abnormal noise is very loud, it indicates that the limit relay may be aging. In this case, the only solution is to replace the limit relay.
