New Mexico driving
laws impose point system regulations on
traffic offenses. At the accumulation of
six points, the driver is warned by the
Motor Vehicle Department of the possibility
of suspension. After accumulating seven
points, the Motor Vehicle Department may
suspend a driver's license for a period no
less than three months if a municipal or
magistrate judge recommends such action.
Twelve points or more received within
twelve months will result in license
suspension for no less than twelve months.
Points can be removed
from your driving record for successful
completion of a Point Reduction course.
If the court has ordered
the driver to complete a Point
Reduction course to reduce the violation. Taking
the Point Reduction course is also an excellent
way to strengthen your road awareness, enhance
your driving knowledge and increase the safety of
you and others
