- Failing to yield to pedestrians (two to three points)
- Driving too fast for conditions (two points). Driving too fast for conditions in a work zone results in a 15-day suspension.

PennDot deals with excessive accumulation of points as follows:
When a driver accumulates six points for the first time, the driver will be required to take a written examination within 30 days or the license will be suspended. If the number of points is subsequently reduced and then rises to six or more, PennDot may require the driver to take a special on-road driver's exam, or order a 15-day license suspension. A third accumulation of six points requires the driver to attend a departmental hearing.
When a driving record reaches 11 or more points, the driver's license will be suspended for five days to one year, depending on the number of prior suspensions.
