Question 4653

If you commit a traffic violation with a vehicle, can you lose part of the points assigned to you?

  1. Yes, because with some violations you can also lose part of the points assigned to you.
  2. No, if I am not the vehicle's registered owner.
  3. Yes, always.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because with some violations you can also lose part of the points assigned to you.

Only certain serious and very serious violations carry point deductions, and only once the penalty is final. Running a red light costs you 4 points; parking improperly costs you none. You lose the points if you were the one driving, even if the vehicle is not yours.
