How and when “Points” are put on your Missouri Driver License and Missouri Driver Record

The Driver License Bureau of the Missouri Department of Revenue adds points on your Missouri driver record when it receives notice from a traffic court that you were convicted of a moving moving traffic violation. The number of points that get put on your Missouri driver license depends on the moving violation of which you are convicted.

For example, a conviction for speeding in violation of a municipal ordinance will result in 2 points on your license while a conviction for speeding in violation of Missouri State law will result in 3 points on your license. A conviction for leaving the scene of an accident in violation of Missouri State law will result in 12 points being put on (and the immediate suspension of) your Missouri driver license.

The following are some examples of some Missouri State law violations and their point values:

* Speeding, 3 points
* Careless & Imprudent Driving, 4 points
* Knowingly Allowing an Unlicensed Driver to Drive, 4 points
* A Felony Involving a Motor Vehicle, 12 points
* Obtaining a Driver License by Misrepresentation, 12 points
* Operating a Vehicle While Suspended or Revoked, 12 points
