Will a Novice Driver Get Points Deducted for the First Traffic Violation?
1 Answers
Points will be deducted. From the date of obtaining the driver's license, any traffic violation can result in points deduction based on the severity of the violation. The same applies during the probationary period. If 12 points are deducted during the probationary period, the license will be revoked. Below is relevant information: Handling: Points deduction on a driver's license is a penalty for traffic violations. Depending on the severity of the violation, points can range from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 12 per offense. The points accumulation cycle is one inspection period. If a driver accumulates 12 points in one cycle, they lose their driving privileges. Typically, they must undergo no less than 7 days of traffic safety education and pass an exam before their driving privileges can be restored. License Suspension: Driving under the influence of alcohol, allowing someone without a valid driver's license or whose license has been revoked or suspended to drive, driving 50% over the speed limit, driving a modified or scrapped vehicle, causing a major traffic accident that constitutes a crime, or accumulating 12 points in one points cycle.
