Why are the 9 points deducted from C1 transferred to B2?

[KiraMarie]

C1 driver's license has been deducted 9 points and the penalty has been processed. At this time, the B2 license has also been obtained. In this case, the B2 license is not affected. The following is additional information: Because after upgrading from C1 to B2, the C1 license must be surrendered and replaced with a new combined B2C1 driver's license. The issued license will be B2. Since the previous 9 points deducted from C1 have been processed, there is no need to worry about B2 being affected. As long as the new B2 license does not accumulate 6 or more points during the probationary period, the probationary period will not be extended by one year. C1 driver's license: It is a type of motor vehicle driver's license code. The permitted driving level of a C1 driver's license includes (all models of C2, C3, C4) small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, and light, small, and micro special operation vehicles. The examination subjects include traffic laws and related knowledge, field driving, road driving, and safe and civilized driving common sense, totaling four items.

I've been driving for years and understand the points system for driver's licenses. The reason why 9 points deducted from a C1 license affects B2 is mainly because the points system is tied to the driver themselves, not the specific type of license. Each driver has only one points record, with a maximum of 12 points, regardless of how many types of licenses they hold. If 9 points are deducted from a C1 license, your total points will be close to the limit. When applying for a B2 upgrade, the traffic authorities will check your points record. If it's too high, you might get stuck, as they'll be concerned about your lack of safe driving experience. This system is designed to encourage everyone to follow traffic rules and reduce high-risk behaviors like speeding or drunk driving. My advice is to drive carefully in daily life and avoid accumulating too many points, otherwise upgrading your license will become difficult.

From the perspective of traffic regulations, point deduction transfer is quite normal. C1's 9 points can be transferred to B2 because penalty points are uniformly managed by ID card, and all violations are accumulated in the driver's record. If you plan to upgrade from C1 to B2, those 9 points may bring your total close to the 12-point threshold, potentially leading to application rejection or mandatory retraining. This rule aims to enhance safety management by ensuring truck drivers have sufficient experience and high qualifications. Using navigation alerts while driving to avoid violations can help minimize such issues.

Simply put, penalty points are tied to the individual. Although C1 and B2 are different driver's licenses, the points are recorded under the same ID card. After accumulating 9 penalty points, the total points increase, which may lead to review and restrictions when upgrading to a B2 license due to safety considerations. Avoiding speeding or frequently checking violation records can help prevent this.
