How many points are you allowed in the 1st 2 years of driving?

In most jurisdictions, new drivers are subject to a probationary period during the first few years of driving. During this period, they are allowed a certain number of points before their license is suspended or revoked. The exact number of points varies by jurisdiction, but it is typically between 4 and 6 points.

In some jurisdictions, new drivers are also subject to a graduated licensing system. This system gradually increases the privileges that new drivers are allowed as they gain experience. For example, new drivers may be restricted to driving during the day or with a licensed adult present. As they accumulate driving experience without violations, they may be allowed to drive at night or without a licensed adult present.

The purpose of the probationary period and graduated licensing system is to help new drivers develop safe driving habits. By limiting the number of points that new drivers are allowed and by gradually increasing their privileges, these systems help to ensure that new drivers are ready to drive safely on their own.
