Alabama Driver License Point System
Points are assessed for various violations as follows(Effective May 1, 2009):- Any conviction which resulted from a charge that involved the drinking of alcoholic beverages and the driving of a motor vehicle but did not require mandatory revocation of the driver license - 6 points
- reckless driving or reckless endangerment involving operating a motor vehicle - 6 points
- failure to yield right-of-way - 5 points

- wrong side of road/illegal passing - 4 points
- following too closely - 3 points
- disregarding traffic control device (stop sign, traffic light, etc.) - 3 points
- all other moving violations - 2 points
- inability to control vehicle - 2 points
- improper lane - 2 points
- speeding (1 to 25 mph over speed limit) - 2 points
- speeding (26 or more mph over speed limit) - 5 points
- drinking alcohol while operating a vehicle - 2 points
- admin per se - 6 points

The following schedule is used to determine the length of a suspension period- 12-14 points in a 2-year period 60 days
- 15-17 points in a 2-year period 90 days
- 18-20 points in a 2-year period 120 days
- 21-23 points in a 2-year period 180 days
- 24 and above points in a 2-year period 365 days
After a traffic conviction is 2 years old, it loses its point count for suspension purposes but remains on a driver's record.
