105. (1) A court shall, when required by this Act, and subject to section 99, may at its discretion in any other case, instead of or in addition to any other punishment imposed under this Act, where the offender is the holder of a licence, order that the offender’s driving record be endorsed with the date and particulars of the offence of which such offender has been convicted.
Where an offender has been served with a traffic ticket under section 94 for an offence involving obligatory endorsement under this Act, the offender’s driving record may be endorsed in accordance with subsection (3) without any order of a court.
On payment of the fine stated on the traffic ticket before the end of the suspended period of enforcement, the Clerk of the Court shall notify the Director Section 106 Traffic Act (2026 Revision) Page 74 Revised as at 31st December, 2025 c of the offender’s name and the date and particulars of the offence, and the Director shall cause the offender’s driving record to be endorsed accordingly.
An endorsement made on a person’s driving record under subsection (3) shall be treated as if it had been made pursuant to an order of the court.
A holder of a licence whose driving record has been endorsed on more than two occasions with offences committed during a consecutive period of three years from the first endorsement —
shall be disqualified from driving vehicles as from the date of the third endorsement for such period as the court may order; and
the court causing the third endorsement to be entered shall cause the Clerk of the Court to forward the offender’s driver’s licence to the Director who shall retain it until the owner ceases to be disqualified from driving by virtue of this section.
