Overview
- In Buenos Aires’ SEPC, drivers start with 20 points and reaching zero triggers a licence suspension, with recent guidance describing 60, 120 and 180‑day suspensions that then double on further repeats.
- Other Argentine reporting states a third total loss can draw a two‑year suspension with licence caducidad and a requirement to complete a road‑safety course before reapplying, underscoring inconsistencies across advisories.
- Drivers can recover points by staying two years without sanctions for full restoration or by completing approved courses that can return up to four points; a paid‑infraction online course can restore half of the deducted points within a set window.
- Administrative steps in Argentina include a 20‑day period to appear before a Controlador Administrativo de Faltas to resolve a suspension, after which points are reassigned according to the case.
- Peru’s MTC now grants a 20‑point bonus valid for 24 months to drivers with 24 months free of infractions and updated infraction G58 so lacking only the electronic licence is not penalized, whereas lacking both formats brings a S/396 fine, vehicle detention and 20 points.
