The option to attend an approved driver improvement course rather than accumulate points is only available for violations that carry no more than five points each. An example of a five-point violation is speeding at 21–25 mph over the speed limit on a roadway whose posted speed limit is under 70 mph. An example of a six-point violation is passing a school bus that is stopped to load or unload students.
