Question 5559

What are the consequences of losing the point balance assigned to the holder of a driver's license?

  1. The driver's license loses its validity.
  2. The driver's license is suspended.
  3. The vehicle is permanently deregistered.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The driver's license loses its validity.

If you run out of points, the traffic authority declares that your driver’s license is no longer valid. Suspension is a different measure, and the points are tied to your license, not your vehicle.
