What is the total number of points that can lead to an 8 month suspension?

The correct answer is: 16

In Delaware, a total of 16 points accumulated on your driving record within a two-year period can result in an 8-month suspension of your driver’s license. This point system is designed to encourage safe driving behaviors, and the suspension becomes a consequence of multiple violations that indicate poor driving conduct. A driver reaches this point threshold due to various traffic infractions, such as speeding, running red lights, or other moving violations. The severity and frequency of these infractions accumulate points, and once a driver hits that 16-point mark, they face serious penalties, including the suspension period. Therefore, understanding the point system and the consequences tied to it is crucial for maintaining a good driving record and avoiding suspension. By consistently adhering to traffic laws and regulations, drivers can effectively manage their points and maintain their driving privileges.
