In the UK 12 points will do it!
In the US it depends on the state
for example:
Florida: 322.28 excerpt provides
(a) When a licensee accumulates 12 points within a 12-month period, the period of suspension shall be for not more than 30 days.
(b) When a licensee accumulates 18 points, including points upon which suspension action is taken under paragraph (a), within an 18-month period, the suspension shall be for a period of not more than 3 months.
(c) When a licensee accumulates 24 points, including points upon which suspension action is taken under paragraphs (a) and (b), within a 36-month period, the suspension shall be for a period of not more than 1 year.
If you get 18 or more points in a two-year period, you'll be subject to an administrative hearing. You can be given up to a year's suspension then. You can also be suspended for failing to attend the Driver Safety Program (which is mandatory if you get ticketed twice in one year).
Each state has a different number. Some have a threshold where if you get above a certain number in a specific period you get a letter telling you to come in for a chat about your excessive point levels, implying if you don't show up you'll get suspended.
Each offense might be anything from 6 to 20 points with each offense having a certain number of points from 1 (minor ticket) to the maximum (automatic suspension).
Let's say the state has 10 points in 12 months or 15 in 24 months gets you a suspension for one year. Each month that you don't get any points moves the "window" so that after a while the points come off. Now, let's say that the law requires that once you have six points, you have to come in for a hearing to determine if you are fit to drive, that if you don't show up you get a six-month suspension.
4 points
. . . suspended.
If you receive 12 points on your driver's license, it will be suspended
In California, I believe that it is 3 points.
11 points in 18 months
In Pennsylvania, drivers under the age of 18 are issued a junior license. If more than six points are taken off of the junior license, the license can be suspended.
10
A person can get up to 15 points on their license before it will be suspended if in a 24 month period. However, serious violations may also cause a license to be suspended or revoked.
6 points
From what I understand, having a California Commercial Driver's License Class A, you can have up to 4 points before your license is suspended.
2 points, as well as a suspended license. For more information, see below link:
DUI/DWAI, unpaid citations, accruing too many points, medical reasons.
VT, or Vermont, will allow ten points. Once ten points have been accumulated on an individuals license, Vermont DMV will send out notifications to the person to inform them that their drivers license has been suspended.
