In Georgia, a driver's license will be suspended if the driver accumulates 15 or more points within a 24-month period

. This applies to drivers aged 21 and older. For drivers under 21, the rules are stricter:

• A single 4-point violation can lead to an immediate license suspension

• Accumulating 4 points within a 12-month period can also result in suspension for drivers under 18

Points are assigned based on the severity of traffic violations, ranging from 1 to 6 points per offense. Common examples include:

• Speeding 15-18 mph over the limit: 2 points
• Reckless driving: 4 points
• Passing a stopped school bus: 6 points

Thus, the key thresholds for license suspension in Georgia are:

• 15 points within 24 months for drivers 21 and older
• 4 points for drivers under 21 (either from a single violation or accumulated in a short period)

These rules are enforced by the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS), which tracks points and suspends licenses accordingly
