To in- Penalty point system vestigate the effectiveness of PPS on reducing illegal driving behavior, this study analyzed traffic violation data Penalty experience of a Chinese city in 2017. This analysis revealed that 1) risky driving behaviors (RDBs) are among the main ffi Self-E cacy causes of traffic violations and 2) almost half of the offenders with multiple violations committed the same traffic Risky driving behaviors rule violations more than once. To further explain these phenomena, a survey in another Chinese city–Tianjin–was conducted. Considering the fact that most types of RDBs will, if detected by the authorities, result in traffic violations, the present study investigated the influence of a PPS, represented by penalty ex- perience (PE), on traffic violation behaviors from the perspective of RDBs. Moreover, the impact of cognitive processes on driving behaviors via self-efficacy was considered. We found that drivers’ PE is positively associated with their RDBs and that offenders with more PE are more inclined to commit RDBs; we further observed that self-efficacy partially mediates the relationship between PE and RDBs.

  • Point System Regulations and Schedule
    MVD–11011 REV. 02/12 New Mexico Taxation & Revenue Department, Motor Vehicle Division POINT SYSTEM REGULATIONS AND SCHEDULE Point System Statute and Regulations New Mexico Statute (Sec. 66-5-30 NMSA 1978) and Rule (18.19.5.50-57 NMAC) authorize the Department to suspend the driver’s license of an individual who has been convicted of violations of the traffic laws with such frequency as to show disrespect for those laws or has been found to be an habitually reckless or negligent driver of a motor vehicle. To provide a reasonable, objective and fair method by which the Department may determine whether an individual shows disrespect for the traffic laws of this state through frequency of conviction for violations or is habitually reckless or negligent and to promote the public safety by removing such drivers from the roads, the Department establishes a “point system” with these regulations. However, Sec. 66-7-302.2 NMSA 1978 prohibits the assignment of points for convictions for speeding on rural highways except in Bernalillo County. A “rural highway” is that part of a highway that is located at least two miles outside of the boundaries of an incorporated city, town or village. Exceptions: The point system shall apply on rural highways for vehicles weighing 12,000 pounds and more and for speeding convictions if excessive speed of the motorist cited was a factor in an accident. 18.19.5.52 NMAC - Schedule of Points for Violations Points to be assessed for conviction of violations of provisions of the Motor Vehicle Code are scheduled in Parts A through F below.

  • Virginia DMV Point System for Traffic
    Virginia DMV Point System For Traffic Law Riley & Wells Attorneys-At-Law | (804) 673-7111 | www.rileywellslaw.com | [email protected] Introduction To Traffic Point System For Offense Convictions Riley & Wells Attorneys-At-Law is a Virginia law firm located in the Richmond VA Metropolitan Area that focuses a significant portion of its law practice to defending clients accused of traffic violations. Traffic violation convictions can negatively affect driving privileges, the driving record and an automobile insurance policy. We consult with clients daily about how their case will be treated by the Courts, the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and ultimately an automobile insurance company. The purpose of this guide is to explain how traffic violations can affect the driving record and driving privileges in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Overview Reckless Driving Moving Violations Any Virginia traffic violation that results in a conviction, even offenses that do not carry demerit points, is posted to the Virginia driving record. In Virginia, the Virginia court notifies the DMV if a motorist is convicted of a traffic violation. An allegation or the mere issuance of a Virginia Uniform Summons (the ticket) does not post to the Virginia driving record. EXAMPLE: A Virginia State Trooper issues a Virginia Uniform Summons to a motorist for reckless driving. The motorist retains a Virginia Traffic Lawyer to defend the reckless driving allegation. The attorney successfully defends the case and the allegation is eventually dismissed. The Court does not notify the DMV about the reckless driving. Thus, no reckless driving case is posted to the driving record and the automobile insurance company never finds out about the reckless driving case.

  • MVR Evaluation
    MVR Evaluation Loss Control Bulletin MVR Evaluation One of the most effective fleet management tools is a driver’s Motor Vehicle Record (MVR). A MVR details an individual’s past driving history indicating violations and accidents over a specified period. Frequency is as much a concern as severity when evaluating a MVR. Equal emphasis should be placed on someone who, during the last three years, has had one minor accident and multiple speeding violations as someone who has had one major violation in the same amount of time. Recent history is the most important. A driver who had several moving violations over three years ago may be a better risk than a driver who had two violations within the last 12 months. All employees should be held to the same MVR standards. When to Order MVRs MVRs should be reviewed for each type of driver (currently employed or prior to placement) in a job with driving duties. Order MVRs in the following situations: Upon hire or placement in a driving position: It is critical to review the MVR before asking a driver to go out on the road on • your behalf. Some companies wait until the next scheduled annual review or until their agent, broker, or insurance carrier asks for an updated driver list. However, this is a risky practice. No employee should be permitted to drive on company business until a MVR check has been completed. After an accident happens or a Motorist Observation Report is received: One way to determine if there has been a • change in a driver’s behavior is to obtain a MVR following an accident or after a call-in report/complaint has been received.
