How can I get points removed from my license for a traffic ticket?

If you have received a traffic ticket in Montana, there are a few ways to have points taken off your license. The first is to take a driving safety course. The Montana Motor Vehicle Division offers these courses and, upon successful completion, a person’s record will show that the points were removed. Another option is to request a deferred imposition of sentence. This means that the court will delay imposing a sentence for a period of time, provided the offender pays all fines and meets any other court-ordered conditions. If the offender does not commit any other traffic offenses for the duration of the deferment, the traffic ticket will not be placed on the official record. Finally, you can also request to have points removed by petitioning the court. You will need to provide the court with evidence that you are a safe driver and that removing points will not put anyone’s safety in danger. If your petition is successful, the traffic ticket will be removed from your record. It is important to note that any of these options require the offender to comply with the court’s instructions and to pay any necessary fines. Failure to comply could result in more severe punishment.
