Getting Rid of Points on Drivers Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\nIf you are assessed points on your driving record, there are certain ways you can remove those points from your record.<\/p>\n
First, 3 points will be removed from your record if you are violation free for 12 consecutive months from the date of your last violation.<\/p>\n
