The new DMV guidelines introduce stricter point penalties for intoxicated driving and other offenses, increasing accountability for reckless drivers and enhancing public safety.
Officials have raised points for various driving offenses: 11 points for intoxicated driving, eight for stopping near school buses, and five for leaving crash scenes.
Stites noted that the new point system could lead to increased license suspensions and revocations, emphasizing that harsher penalties may encourage better driving behavior.
The adjustments to the point system come with extended time for judges to review offenses, with a new requirement for a hearing for those amassing significant points.
