When you accumulate demerit points, the system tracks how many you’ve earned in a set period and uses that total to decide whether your driving privileges should be restricted. Reaching a twelve-point total within twelve months signals a high level of risk and triggers license action to protect others on the road. The appropriate consequence is suspension or revocation of the license—suspension being temporary loss of driving privileges and revocation meaning a longer or permanent loss until certain conditions are met to restore it. Fines are separate penalties tied to individual violations and don’t by themselves remove the license. Reinstatement would occur after a suspension ends or after meeting requirements to get the license back, not as the immediate action for hitting the threshold.
