Negligent Driver Point Counts: Common California Vehicle Code Violations

Negligent Driver Point Counts:
Common California Vehicle Code Violations

Violation points are assigned to Vehicle Code sections and any other code section, or city or county ordinance, involving the safe operation of a motor vehicle. Any violation occurring as a pedestrian or a bicyclist has no point assigned. The department may suspend and place on probation, or revoke, the driving privilege of a negligent operator.

Under Vehicle Code § 12810.5a, a Class C negligent operator has

• 4 or more points in 12 months,
• 6 in 24 months, or
• 8 in 36 months.

Although a Class A or B driver without a special certificate may be allowed 2 additional points, a violation received in a commercial vehicle carries 1 1/2 times the point count normally assessed (12810.5b VC). A minor, under 18 years of age, may receive a 30-day restriction for 2 points in 12 months, or be suspended for 3 points in 12 months (12814.6 VC).
