Why does the driver's license show 6 points after score reset?

This is caused by a system glitch. Simply exit and log in again, and it should return to normal. Below is relevant information: Introduction to driver's license: A driver's license, officially called a motor vehicle driving license, is a legal document required for operating motor vehicles. Driving requires specific skills, and operating vehicles without such skills may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, driving without a license is prohibited. Introduction to score reset: Score reset refers to clearing accumulated penalty points before annual inspection if they haven't reached 12. The accumulation period for traffic violation points is 12 months with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date of initial license issuance.
When I first started driving, I was quite confused about the changes in my driver's license points. Shouldn't the points reset to the full 12 after clearing? Why did it show 6 points? Later, I figured out that this was actually a minor system delay or misunderstanding. The license starts with 12 points, and violations like running a red light deduct 6 points, reducing the total. At the end of each annual scoring cycle, all deducted points are cleared, returning to 12. However, showing 6 points after clearing might be because you were recently penalized before the clearing, and the record wasn't immediately removed, or the app didn't refresh in time to update to the latest status. I've experienced multiple delays when checking points on my phone. It's recommended to regularly check the real score using the official app and maintain safe driving with fewer violations to naturally keep points high.
