Question

How long do points stay on your license for insurance purposes?

Answer 1

It depends on the state you're in but in most states points for insurance purposes stay on your license for a period of 2 to 3 years.

One point can raise your insurance rates another $25.00 to $40.00 per year and those points affect your drivers license for up to 3 years.

Insurance companies check driving records once per year in most cases.

Answer 2

The length of time that points stay on your license can vary from state to state.

However in most states the points stay on your license for a period of 3 years.

After the 3 years the points on your license no longer impact your auto insurance rates or cause any potential license suspensions.

However when you accumulate 14 points on your license within 3 years time it will cause a suspension of your drivers license.
