Traffic Points

Many young drivers get a speeding ticket and don't realize what is does to their driving record. Most states assign a point value to most traffic offenses. The systems for traffic points vary greatly from state to state. For example, most California traffic offenses carry only one to two points. But if you get four points on your license in a year, your license can be suspended or revoked. In the state of Montana, you must accumulate 30 points over a three year period for your license to be in danger of suspension. And Minnesota and Oregon do not have a points system. If you get a ticket and you want to keep traffic points off your license, you can try to plea bargain in traffic court. And in 23 states, you can attend traffic school and have your charges dismissed. In most cases you will have to pay the fine but your driving record will stay clean.

Fast Facts

  • States take passing a stopped school bus seriously. In most states it carries a high point value - up to six.
  • Montana is one of the few states that has vehicular homicide charges on its points system.
