Demerit Point system :

If during this 1 year you have no demerit points offence at all, your 3 demerit points will be gone on 1/1/2006.

But, if during this one year, From 1/1/2005- 1/1/2006, you commited another offence with demerit points, your very first offence will be extended for another year until 1/1/2007.
