If you get 6 points on your license within 2 years of passing your test, what happens?

  1. Your insurance cost increases

  2. You pay a fine

  3. You get a warning

  4. You will have to reapply for your provisional license and retake both your theory and practical tests.

The correct answer is: You will have to reapply for your provisional license and retake both your theory and practical tests.

Receiving 6 points on your license within 2 years of passing your test is considered a major violation and will result in the revocation of your provisional license. This means that you will have to reapply for your provisional license and retake both your theory and practical tests. Options A, B, and C do not accurately address the severity of receiving 6 points on your license. Option A may be true in the long run, but it does not directly address the immediate consequence of 6 points within the 2 year period. Option B is also incorrect because paying a fine does not necessarily equate to losing your license. Option C, a warning, is also not true as receiving 6 points is not simply a warning but a serious matter that results in losing your provisional license.
