Indiana, like most states, has adopted the traffic violations point system. Depending on the type of violation, a person will receive a certain amount of points on their record. If a person receives 12 or more points within two years, their license will be on probation. Any violation during the probation period will result in license suspension. An experienced Indiana speeding ticket defense lawyer from the Law Offices of Tony Zirkle can consult with you regarding your rights.
The Indiana point scale works as follows:

Two Point Violations:

Eight Point Violations:
