About Illinois traffic laws
Illinois assigns points through the Secretary of State, but suspension is driven by the number of convictions: three moving violations in 12 months suspends an adult license. Driving 26+ mph over is a criminal misdemeanor in Illinois.
How points & your license work in Illinois
Illinois adds demerit points to your record on conviction. Each conviction carries points (speeding 5–50 depending on severity), and three convictions within 12 months triggers a suspension whose length scales with your total points. The Illinois Secretary of State suspension trigger of 3 convictions in 12 months means a single avoidable conviction can push you closer to losing your license.
