Drivers License Points Adult Drivers
Adult Drivers
Drivers License Points Adult Drivers — If a driver accumulates too many points assessed in a certain period of time by the Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for convictions of certain traffic violations, the driver’s license may be suspended for up to one year. This type of suspension is called a Point Suspension. The amount of points you are allowed before the suspension of your driver’s license depends upon your age and whether you where driving as a chauffeur. An Adult Driver is a driver who is 21 years or older and not a Chauffeur Driver at the time of the traffic violation.

Adult Drivers (21 Years or Older)
12 points in any 12 consecutive months
18 points in any 24 consecutive months
What if I am a Chauffeur Driver? Am I Allowed More Points?
Yes. Read about how more points are allowed for Chauffeur Drivers.
What Happens if I Get a Ticket Before I Am 21 Years Old, Then Turn 21 Before My Court Date?
No. In Colorado, you do not start out with points and are not given points as you grow older; rather, a Point Suspension occurs when a driver accumulates too many points within a certain period of time. The amount of points that you are allowed before a suspension occurs depends upon your age at the time of the violation.
