Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles Points system
Ohio Driver's License Demerit Points
B.M.V. Points System. If a person with an Ohio driver's license is convicted of a moving offense, the Court in which the person is convicted assesses points to that person's driver's license. The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (B.M.V.) maintains records of convictions and their associated points. If a person accumulates six or more points, the B.M.V. sends that person a warning letter. If a person accumulates 12 or more points within two years, the BMV. imposes a six-month driver's license suspension.
