Will the information on a lost driver's license be misused?
1 Answers
If someone else takes your lost driver's license, they cannot use it to deduct points. Currently, deducting points from a driver's license requires the license holder to personally present the license. However, if your driver's license is lost, you should apply for a replacement as soon as possible. The regulations and explanations regarding driver's license point deductions are as follows: Deducting points for traffic violations must be done by the license holder in person, as the police will photograph and archive the person deducting points along with their driver's license and original ID card for future reference. If your driver's license is lost, it is generally difficult for others to misuse it, so you should promptly apply for a replacement: 1. Bring your ID card or temporary ID card (if you applied for the license outside your registered residence, you need to submit a temporary residence permit from the application location) and two ID photos to the vehicle management office where the license was issued (or the county traffic police station) to obtain the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" and the "Written Statement of Lost Driver's License." Fill them out and submit them together to apply for a replacement. 2. After paying a 10-yuan processing fee, wait a short while to receive your new driver's license. 3. If you are unable to apply for a replacement in person due to being in a different location, you can obtain the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" and the "Written Statement of Lost Driver's License" from the local vehicle management office, fill them out, and send them along with your ID card and two ID photos to a relative or friend to handle the replacement on your behalf.
