In Queensland, provisional or learner drivers may accumulate up to 4 demerit points in a one year period, and open licence holders 12 demerit points in a three year period, before receiving a sanction. A driver who exceeds their point threshold may choose between a license suspension for a period of 3 months, or to enter into a 12-month good driving behaviour bond. If a driver incurs more than one point while subject to a good driving behaviour bond, their license is suspended for a period of 6 months.
