*The driver receives the same number of points listed if the conviction occurs out-of-state or in a federal court.

Length of Suspension
12 points within a 12-month period	30 days
18 points within an 18-month period, including points which cause suspension under line 1 above	3 months
24 points within a 36-month period, including points which cause suspension under line 2 above	1 year

In computing points and suspensions, the offense dates of all convictions are used. Three points will be deducted from the driver record of any person whose driving privilege has been suspended only once under the point system and has been reinstated, if such person has complied with all other requirements.

NOTE: Serving a point suspension does not prohibit these convictions from being used to accumulate additional suspensions or revocations.
