Missouri Driver Point Calculator

Enter the convictions, get the point total, the reduction schedule and the suspension threshold they cross.

Missouri assesses points by statute, reduces them on a fixed schedule, and suspends or revokes a licence at four specific thresholds. None of that is discretionary, so you can do the arithmetic in advance. This free Missouri driver point calculator does it against RSMo 302.302, 302.304 and 302.306.

We built it for the people who read Missouri MVRs all day — insurance agents pricing a risk, underwriters checking a renewal, fleet and safety managers deciding whether a driver stays behind the wheel. Nothing you type ever leaves your browser, because the whole thing runs locally.

Calculate

This is a simulator, not an official calculator. It applies the State of Missouri's current statutory point schedule — RSMo 302.302, 302.304 and 302.306 — to whatever you enter here, and we keep that schedule up to date. Only the Department of Revenue's own record is official.

The simulator projects from the statute. It is not a driving record. It assumes every conviction you enter was actually reported to the Department of Revenue, that none was disposed of through a court-ordered driver improvement program under RSMo 302.303, and that no suspension or revocation has already reset the total to four points. The official number is whatever the Department of Revenue's record says.

A Missouri MVR from MissouriMVR is $2.00 per record in a batch, delivered as a PDF in the state's own format with BAC levels included, usually within minutes. The state charges $2.82 and the nearest commercial providers charge $15.95 and $16.88.

What each violation is worth

Missouri sets every point value in statute. In practice the number depends on whether the driver was convicted under state law or under a county or municipal ordinance, and the difference is often large — careless and imprudent driving is four points under state law and two under a municipal ordinance, and leaving the scene is twelve against six.

The two extra points people forget

RSMo 302.302.3 adds two more points when personal injury or property damage results from most of the violations above — but only where the reporting court finds it warranted and certifies it. That is why two drivers with what looks like the same speeding conviction can sit at three points and five. The Missouri driver point calculator above has a checkbox for it on each row.

What happens at 4, 8, 12, 18 and 24 points

Four separate thresholds matter, and they run on different clocks, so a driver can clear one and fail another. Importantly, the windows count back from today, not from a licence anniversary.

However, revocation runs two years rather than one where the driver files no proof of financial responsibility. After a suspension or revocation is reinstated Missouri does not wipe the accumulated total — it resets to four points, which leaves very little headroom before the next threshold. Members of the armed forces serving overseas reset to zero.

How points come off

Points fall away on the schedule in RSMo 302.306, but only while the driver stays clean:

Note, though, that no credit accrues during a period of suspension or revocation. One thing worth being precise about: the points coming off the running total is not the same as the conviction leaving the record. A conviction generally stays visible for three years, or five years from reinstatement where it caused a suspension or revocation, and some convictions — the intoxication-related ones in particular — stay on a Missouri record permanently. In other words, a driver can sit at zero points and still show a DWI. If you are underwriting on points alone you are reading half the record.

Where this Missouri driver point calculator stops

It is arithmetic on convictions you already know about. It cannot tell you what the Department of Revenue has actually recorded, however, and that gap is where the risk lives:

For anything you are going to price a policy on, underwrite, or put in a file, pull the record. See what a Missouri driving record contains, what federal and Missouri rules require of employers, or how continuous monitoring catches changes between annual pulls.

Frequently asked questions

How many points before you lose your licence in Missouri?

Eight points in eighteen months suspends a Missouri licence for thirty days on a first offence. Twelve points in twelve months, eighteen in twenty-four months, or twenty-four in thirty-six months revokes it for a year.

How many points is a speeding ticket in Missouri?

Three points under state law, two under a county or municipal ordinance. Add two more, however, if the court certifies that personal injury or property damage resulted.

How long do points stay on a Missouri driving record?

Missouri reduces the accumulated total by one third after a clean year, then by half after a second clean year, and finally withdraws the rest after a third. The conviction itself stays visible longer — generally three years, five years from reinstatement where it caused a suspension or revocation, and permanently for certain offences.

How many points is a DWI in Missouri?

Eight points for a first intoxication-related offence or a first BAC of .08% or above; twelve for a second or subsequent one. Eight points on its own already meets the eight-in-eighteen-months threshold, so a single first DWI conviction is enough to suspend a Missouri licence for thirty days.

Do points come back after a suspension?

Not to their old total. On reinstatement Missouri resets the accumulated point value to four rather than zero, so a driver returning from a suspension is already halfway to the next one.

Is this Missouri driver point calculator official?

No — it is a simulator. It applies the State of Missouri's current statutory point schedule to the convictions you enter, and we keep that schedule up to date against RSMo 302.302, 302.304 and 302.306. Only the Department of Revenue's own record is official, and it is available from MissouriMVR at $2.00 per record.
