Habitual Traffic Offender Label & It’s Repercussions

Being characterized as a “Habitual Traffic Offender” by the Registry of Motor Vehicles has a wide range of consequences for motorists. If the RMV determines that you are a “Habitual Offender,” your license can be revoked for four years. Based on your poor driving record, this is an automatic revocation. Generally speaking, you should do all you can do to fall into the HTO category, or you could be facing a license suspension of 4 years.
