There are currently 2 659 offences listed on the AARTO website. You can find a full list including their fines and associated demerit points below:
-
SPEEDING FINES
-
RULES OF THE ROAD
-
LICENSE VIOLATIONS
-
ROADWORTHINESS
-
PARKING VIOLATIONS
-
RECKLESS AND NEGLIGENT DRIVING
As a reminder, under the new AARTO penalties, motorists may only receive 15 demerit points on their license before suspension. You can be suspended twice before your driving license is taken away permanently. Each suspension means having to retake a driver’s/learner’s qualification test.
