Cards erased at mid season

I suggest that all players' accumulated yellow cards should be erased at mid season, just like in the EPL. Robin van Persie did not start in United v West Brom, both for a rest and because he was one yellow card away from a suspension. All EPL players will start the next round of fixtures with a clean slate, but I'm not sure whether it applies to other competitions or other leagues.

EPL always wanted to be more special and they come with this kinda of rules, but this is only to them, if I am not wrong in the FA CUP it's same they erase cards for semi-final and final.

Nope, this rule would not make any sense, english rules run per season and its different for european competitions.
