The amount of points you are allowed before the suspension of your driver’s license depends upon your age and whether or not you are a chauffeur driver.

What Happens if I Get a Ticket Before I Am 21 Years Old, Then Turn 21 Before My Court Date? Do I Get Points Added To My License?

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.
