How many demerit points can you have before facing a driving suspension?

In British Columbia, you face a driving suspension once you accumulate 15 demerit points on your driving record. This threshold is established in order to encourage safe driving behavior and penalize those who demonstrate a pattern of risky driving practices. The demerit point system is designed to track violations and ensure that drivers maintain a standard of safety while on the road. Reaching or exceeding the limit of 15 demerit points can lead to penalties, including a driving suspension, emphasizing the importance of keeping a clean driving record.
