Drivers may request to attend a driver improvement clinic if they accumulate four points (on the eight-point scale) or seven points (on the 12-point scale) on their driving record.
To receive point credit, an individual must qualify and have a conference with an
administrative hearings officer.
Drivers can attend driving improvement clinics once every five years. View the
clinic schedule.
Upon satisfactory completion, three points are deducted from the driving record.
Eligibility Hearings
The N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles sends a letter to any individual who might qualify for a driver improvement clinic. Upon notification, they must
apply for a hearing and pay the associated fee. NCDMV will then assign a hearing date.
