traffic violation points system

The traffic violation points system is a way for authorities to track driving behavior. When a driver commits a traffic violation, such as speeding or running a red light, they receive points added to their driving record. Each type of violation carries a specific point value. Accumulating too many points can lead to increased insurance rates, fines, or even the suspension of the driver’s license. The system encourages safer driving by penalizing repeat offenders while generally allowing drivers to clear points over time through safe driving practices or completing defensive driving courses.
