Ah, demerit points in South Australia – the government's way of keeping you honest on the roads without a direct punch to your wallet (at least initially). In SA, accumulating 12 demerit points within a 3-year period will trigger a licence suspension, typically for 3 months. Points vary based on the offence, for example, speeding can rack up anywhere from 1 to 6 points depending on how much you exceeded the limit.
New drivers need to be extra cautious, as provisional drivers face a lower threshold of 4 points before suspension. Remember, demerit points stick around like a bad smell, so it pays to keep your driving clean. For the nitty-gritty, consult the official SA government transport site or peek at ServiceCentral for detailed offence point allocations.
