What triggers the first level of action in the NOTS?

The first level of action in the Negligent Operator Treatment System (NOTS) is triggered by accumulating 2 points on your driving record within a 12-month period. This system is designed to identify drivers who may pose a risk due to their driving behavior. When a driver reaches this threshold, it activates the first level of intervention, which can include warning letters or the requirement to attend a traffic violator school.

Understanding this threshold is critical, as it sets the stage for subsequent levels of action that can occur if the driver continues to accumulate points. It serves as a preventive measure aimed at reducing risky driving behavior before more severe penalties or actions are necessary. This early intervention can help address issues before they escalate further, emphasizing the importance of maintaining safe driving habits.
