Reckless driving is 6 points. Failure to display license – zero points. Points can increase your insurance costs. Too many points can cause a suspension.

A must appear ticket requires you to go to court. Accordingly, must appears are sometimes called serious violations. Serious violations can result in jail time. Hit & run. DUIs. Driving while suspended. Driving without insurance. These are all must appear tickets. Must appear tickets can also result in points. A DUI is 12 points. Driving without a license is 5 points. Also, you risk probation. Further, possible community service. We recommend having a lawyer for a serious violation.
