The illegal text message only said three points, not a fine.

Legal analysis: no fine. Deducting three points without penalty is a warning to traffic violations by the traffic police brigade or detachment. There will be no fine or deduction, but it will affect the annual review. Usually it is a warning of speeding but not exceeding 10% or other minor violations. Although there is no punishment, it still needs to be handled by the traffic police brigade or detachment, otherwise the record will always exist. In this case, it will have an impact on future annual review and replacement.

Legal basis: Article 65 of the Provisions on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving License, the cumulative scoring cycle (i.e. scoring cycle) of road traffic safety violations is 12 months, with a full score of 12, counting from the date when the motor vehicle driving license is obtained for the first time.

According to the severity of road traffic safety violations, the scores of a score are: 12, 6, 3, 2, 1.
