You can check your overall driving record in Massachusetts by going to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation website. You will not be able to check how many points are on your license in Massachusetts, however, because Massachusetts does not use driver's license points.
Even though Massachusetts does not use license points, drivers with serious violations on their driving record will still face consequences. For instance, three speeding tickets within 12 months will result in a license suspension in Massachusetts. Insurance companies also increase prices for drivers with poor driving records. For reference, one DUI conviction will raise your premium by an average of 104% in Massachusetts.
