Other
violations, such as speeding, running a red light,
driving after suspension, and many others, do result in
points on your driving record. If you have a hearing and
the judge decides you are at fault for an accident, you
will receive 2 additional points.
If you
accumulate too many points within two years, DMV will
suspend your driving privilege as follows:
- 10 points/10 day suspension
- 15 points/30 day suspension
- 20
points/90 day suspension
For each additional 5 points above 20 points, the
suspension is an extra 30 days above 90 days in length.
Also, an automatic 60 day suspension is imposed for
counterfeiting any registration plate, inspection
sticker, license certificate, etc. After the suspension
period is over, you must pay a $50.00 fee to the DMV and
obtain a reinstatement letter before driving again. The
reinstatement fee is charged after every suspension.
