Bodový systém (point system) is a Czech system for recording traffic violations (law no. 361/2000 Coll.). With a change from 01.01.2024, it has become simpler and stricter at the same time.
Three categories instead of five
There were five categories before, now there are only three: 2, 4, or 6 points for a violation.
When you lose your license
- 12 points — you lose your driving license.
- You must hand in your license within 5 days.
How points are removed
- 12 months without violations — minus 4 points.
- Another 24 months — minus another 4 points.
- 36 months — all remaining points are removed.
"Twice and you're out" rules
- "Dvakrát a dost" (twice and you're out): two 6-point violations in 3 years — automatic loss of license for up to 3 years.
- "Třikrát a dost" (three times and you're out): three medium violations in 2 years.
