Alabama Points for Violations
Alabama uses a point system to track traffic violations and penalize repeat offenders. Less serious offenses, like speeding 1-25 mph over the limit, are worth 2 points, while more serious violations like failing to yield or passing a stopped school bus can get you 5 points. Reckless driving is a 6-point violation.
If you get 12 or more points within two years, your license may be suspended. The suspension length depends on how many points you accumulate; for example, 12-14 points lead to a 60-day suspension, while 24 or more points result in a 365-day suspension. While points reset after two years, the violations themselves stay on your record for life.
