====f. Driver’s license points and penalties==== | ====f. Driver’s license points and penalties==== | ||
You get points against your driver’s license, as this [http://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/driving-and-transportation/driving/publications/mandatory-matrix.pdf chart] shows. And those points cost you a lot of money, called the driver penalty point premium, as this [http://www.icbc.com/driver-licensing/tickets/Pages/Driver-Penalty-Points.aspx chart] shows. Also check script [[The Points System and ICBC (Script 187)|187]], called “The Points System and ICBC”. | You get points against your driver’s license, as this [http://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/driving-and-transportation/driving/publications/mandatory-matrix.pdf chart] shows.

But other effects apply to you: your car is impounded and you must pay towing and impoundment fees. You probably don’t want to lend your car to someone who may drink and drive. | |||
