Alberta Motor Association (AMA) Learner’s Practice Exam

Accumulating eight or more demerit points on a Class 7 Learner's Licence results in a suspension of the driving privilege. This consequence is in place to promote safe driving habits and discourage repeated infractions that can lead to dangerous situations on the road. The demerit point system is designed to hold drivers accountable for their actions, and reaching this threshold indicates a significant pattern of misconduct that the authorities take seriously.

While penalties such as fines can occur for individual offenses, the specific action of suspending driving privileges is the most immediate and impactful response to reaching eight or more demerit points. This helps ensure that the driver takes the necessary steps to improve their driving behavior before being allowed to operate a vehicle again.
