How The System Works and Applies Demerit Points
Demerit points system is a point system in Ontario implemented by the Ministry of Transportation, It is designed to, together with fines and suspensions to further penalize drivers for not following the driving rules on the roads in Ontario. 
Every driver starts with 0 (zero) points. But, demerit points will be added to your driving licence, and demerit points remain on the driving record for 2 years.  ** DO NOT MISTAKE THAT ALL CHARGES REMAIN ON YOUR LICENSE !
Each traffic offence brings a certain number of Ontario driving demerit points. If you are from out of province the Ontario gov’t will let you province know to put points on your licence in that province.  You may lose your licence. Rules of its accumulation vary depending on the licence class (novice driver or full licenced driver).
