Do you have no idea how many traffic violations you’ve committed as a driver in Mexico City, or don’t know how to recover your points?
The first thing you need to do is enter the capital government’s microsite, which will ask for your badge number to access the score, and, if applicable, the corresponding sanctions.
Address: http://www.tramites.cdmx.gob.mx/infracciones/
If you’ve committed violations, you’ll need to review and comply with the penalties that match your score, which starts with 10 points.

Each infringement recorded by cameras and radars is equivalent to one point less in the tuition penalty scheme. The actions for which you can lose points are by speeding around; go in contraflow; invade the waiting area of cyclist, motorcyclist and pedestrian crossing; transport children in the front seat; not respecting the red light at the traffic light; turn forbidden; do not wear seat belt and helmet, in the case of motorcyclists, as well as use cell phone.
If as a driver you exceed by more than 40% the allowed speed, you will automatically be subtracted five points from your plate.
-When the registration accumulates two points less, you will receive a notification.
-At the third point, you will have to take a basic online driving course.
– With four points, you must take an advanced online driving course.
-If you reach the fifth point, you have to take a face-to-face accident awareness course.
-From the sixth point, you must complete two hours of community work.
-In the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth fault, you have to complete all the courses, plus four, six, eight and up to 10 hours of community work, respectively.
-If you lose the 10 points you will not be able to verify until you have 10 hours of community work.
The Mexican City Mobility Secretariat said that, between June 8 and September 5, it has imposed 147,88 violations detected with cameras and radars, involving 11,706 vehicles that committed 1.3 violations each, on average , for speed.

What if I don’t comply with my infractions?
-Infringements that are not met will be accumulated for each vehicle verification cycle and in order to be able to verify in that period, it will be necessary to redeem all accumulated penalties.
-Points are cumulative and are reset after each verification period, not after compliance with sanctions.
-Even if the penalty for which a point was withdrawn is resolved, it will not be refunded until the new vehicle verification cycle, i.e. drivers have a limit of penalties for each cycle.
-When they initiate operation, people will receive notifications of their violation by email or cell phone.
-Photocivics must be solved exclusively by the owner of the car, regardless of whether someone else has committed the infringement.
