The correct answer is: The driver may lose his/her license

When a driver accumulates 12 points within a three-year period in North Carolina, the outcome is typically the loss of their driving privileges. This point system is designed to promote safe driving by penalizing repeated violations. The accumulation of points signifies a pattern of risky behavior on the road, which leads the state to take protective action for public safety. Once a driver reaches this threshold, their license may be suspended for a period of time, depending on the number of points they have accumulated. The points could come from various traffic violations such as speeding, reckless driving, or driving without a seatbelt. Understanding the consequences of the point system is crucial for drivers to maintain their privileges and drive responsibly.
