Talk:Point system (driving)

3 to 4 years
Also, when did it go from 3 years to 4 for speeding points? Law on the Web gives more details on when the 4/11 year rules apply. Dalavich 15:51, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Would be very enjoyed, if anyone could transfer the german part into "good english". Ad.ac (talk) 22:27, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Article improvement: history of point system
I came here looking to see the origins of this system and which countries were first, second, etc. The article says at the start that Germany introduced their system in 1974 and New York introduced one around the same time, implying they were first. However, further down it seems Victoria had a system in 1969. When did the UK system start? I think the article would be improved hugely by a section on the history of the system across the world. 188.141.10.11 (talk) 17:01, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Subtractive point system
The wording of the lead should be changed to avoid talking about "accumulation" of points as the sole method of losing a license. In some countries, such as France, you are assigned a certain number of points when you receive your driving license, and with each penalty for breaking a traffic law, one or more points is removed from your license, and when you have no points left, you have no license.
