Traffic Points for Huber Heights Cases
Ohio's 12-point system applies to traffic convictions from all Huber Heights courts, including the Mayor's Court. Points go on your driving record after the court files an abstract with the BMV within seven days of conviction under Section 4510.03 of the Ohio Revised Code.
An OVI or hit-skip conviction adds 6 points. Reckless operation and speeding 30 or more over the posted limit add 4 points. Most other moving violations carry 2 points. When you hit 12 points in two years, the BMV suspends your license for six months. The Ohio Department of Public Safety oversees the BMV and tracks your point total. A remedial driving course removes two points, but you can only use that once every three years. Even minor violations from the Mayor's Court can add points, so they count toward the 12-point threshold.
