Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Jamie is 17. In the past 12 months, Jamie was convicted of two traffic violations that added a total of 6 points to the driving record. According to the Tennessee driver manual, what does the Department of Safety do?
Correct answer: It sends a notice of proposed suspension, because drivers under 18 reach that step at 6 points.
Why
The point system tries to correct unsafe driving before it leads to a crash. Adults with 6 to 11 points in 12 months get an advisory letter, and drivers under 18 get one at 1 to 5 points. For a teen with an intermediate restricted license, 6 or more points also delays the next license level.
