AMDifficulty 3/5

A driver obtains their first licence and starts with 8 points. Without final penalties for points-deducting offences or other bonuses, when do they reach 12 points through licence tenure?

Correct answer

2 years.

After two years, under Article 65(2) of the traffic law. The rule concerns the novice’s initial eight-point balance and the period without final administrative penalties for offences carrying points deductions. It does not require having no fines of any kind, and not every driver starts with eight points. The balance is shared across the licence categories held.
