FAQ Answer
- If a driver (operator) accumulates 12 or more points, driving privilege will be suspended for seven days for every point over 11. Once the points have been reduced to 11, one point will be reduced for every three-month period during which no points are recorded against the operator’s driving record.
- Operators may elect to attend an approved defensive driving course which will reduce three points from their driving record. This three-point reduction can only be used once every 12-month period. Proof of course completion must be mailed to the NDDOT’s Drivers License Division.
- Operators issued a citation with a penalty of five points or less may elect to attend an approved defensive driving course in lieu of entry of points on their driving record. The operator must notify the court at the time bond is posted and provide proof of course completion to NDDOT within 30 days.
