You can only get a 8 point ticket if you run from a cop...

With 15 points you'll loose your license for 45 days.

its not 45 days, i know, because i only have my junior operators license. its at least 90 days, i know that. i got a 2 point ticket for "driving to fast for conditions" and i rolled my car, and totaled it last summer. i got a 5 point ticket for going 65 in a 40, and an 8 point ticket for going 63 in a 25.

yeah i think its the same for a regular liciense,  its 10 points = 10 day suspension
15 points = 30 day suspension
20 points = 90 day suspension

but im not 18 yet, so i dont have a regular liciense, i have a junior operators licenses, and it says that,

Learner's Permits and Junior Operator's licenses can be recalled for the following reasons:

  • A speeding violation resulting in 3 or more points
  • A total accumulation of six or more point
and i have 15 points with a junior operators license

do the points go onto your record immediately?  Or, do they occur once your ticket is paid?

shit, that sucks.
Does it have to be paid in full??
I was wondering because when I got my second ticket under graduated licensing, I was going to be over the limit of points and have to restart the whole 2 year thing - since I had gotten another ticket like a year prior.  So, i was told that the points only go on record once the ticket is paid in full.. so I dragged it out the payments like 6 months until I had my full drivers license.

that's what I did.. i plead not guilty, the court date was really late.. when it came time to go to court, i was lucky that they had a full docket that day and since I plead not guilty they set another date.. it got dragged out until I finally had my full license and the points wouldn't set me back another 2 years.
It's totally worth it for you to plead not guilty if you're close.  You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.  Just go in to court and ask for an extension.
