how many tickets can you get before they take your license away?
Negligent operator violation point count
Once you are licensed to drive in California it is important that you continue to follow all the laws and practice safe driving habits. If you start accumulating tickets for moving violations, which count as one or two points, you may be considered a negligent operator and may lose your privilege to drive.
Most driving offenses, such as hit and run, reckless driving, and driving under the influence, are designated as 2 points and will remain on your record for seven years from the violation date. Most other offenses are designated as 1 point and will remain on your record for three years from the violation date. Any "at fault" accident is normally counted as one point.
You will be considered a negligent operator if your driving record shows any of the following point count totals:
4 points in 12 months, or
6 points in 24 months, or
8 points in 36 months

I feel obliged to add that the DMV's policies in this matter are ridiculously lax. Barring criminal prosecution, under the current standards, you could still drive around without review after a hit-and-run and a speeding ticket. Un-*******-believable.
