Where to Receive Training After Accumulating 12 Points on Driving License?
2 Answers
Drivers who accumulate 12 penalty points within one scoring cycle are required to attend training at the traffic management department of the public security authority in either the issuing location of their motor vehicle driving license or where the traffic violation occurred. The training involves 8 hours of daily instruction on road traffic safety laws and related knowledge for a total of 7 days. After completing the 7-day training, participants must retake the subject one exam. Additional details: 1. Upon passing the subject one exam, the accumulated points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driving license will be returned. 2. Drivers who fail the exam must repeat the training and examination process. 3. If a driver accumulates more than 12 but fewer than 24 points within one scoring cycle, they only need to attend the legal training and examination.
I've been driving for over 20 years and have seen many drivers go through training due to excessive points. After accumulating 12 points, you must attend classes at locations designated by the local vehicle management office, such as traffic police detachments or partnered driving school centers. It usually takes about five days, with half-day classes each day. The content includes reviewing traffic rules, analyzing real cases, and learning safe driving techniques—quite practical and helps you deeply reflect on your mistakes. At the end of the course, you'll need to take a theory test (Subject 1), which isn't too difficult; studying the material carefully should ensure you pass. Bring your ID card and photos when registering, and if the process goes smoothly, your license can be restored within a week. Although the whole process is time-consuming, its purpose is to improve road safety and prevent future violations. It's advisable to contact the vehicle management office in advance to schedule an appointment and avoid delays.
