In accordance with Arkansas Traffic Laws, the Arkansas Administrative Point System is used to identify problem drivers. Under Arkansas driving law, points are assigned for various traffic violations ranging from:
- failure to obey a traffic signal (3 points)
- reckless driving (8 points)
- speeding 0-10 (3 points)
A computer program searches all the driver records weekly and identifies the records which have fallen within a preset range for various sanctions. For example:
- 10-13 points - a warning letter is issued telling the driver to be careful.
- 14 or more points - a notice is sent to the licensee advising them of a proposed suspension action and advising them that they may have a hearing to discuss the proposed action.
- Persons with 14 to 17 points may be suspended for three months.
- Persons with 18 to 23 points may be suspended for six months.
- Persons with 24 or more points may be suspended for one year.
