I got a ticket for a unlawful U-turn in Augusta, Georgia. Do you know how many points I will get for that violation?

Larry

Augusta, GA

The Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) states that after a conviction of a traffic offense, the court will forward notice of that infraction to this state agency and points may be assessed.

The GA DDS points list an illegal U-turn is not specifically listed and thus would appear to fall under the heading of “all other moving infractions” which is assigned three points.

According to the Georgia Department of Driver Services, according to GA Code Section 40-5-57, points related to moving infraction convictions, such as the three points assessed for an illegal U-turn, remain on your driving record for 24 months (2 years).

The DDS also states that the actual infraction remain on your record indefinitely. So if you are convicted of making an illegal U-turn in Georgia then the conviction for a will remain on your driving record permanently.

To get more information on the cost of your fine for your illegal U-turn citation, you may contact the court listed on your ticket.
