			 positions of the offense code may be used to indicate the paragraph of the
			 Section violated or refer to the number of miles per hour (in code form) the
			 driver was operating above the posted speed limit (refer to Electronic Data
			 Processing Machine (EDPM) Offense Codes set out in this Part).
4) The Secretary of State's Traffic Violation
			 Advisory Committee relied upon the following criteria in determining whether
			 specific convictions for traffic violations should be used in determining
			 driver license suspension or revocation under the authority of IVC Section
			 6-206(a)(2), as well as the number of points that should be assigned to those
			 convictions, which in turn determines the length and type of such action.
A) A thorough review of literature relating
			 to the general concept of point systems utilized by other states.
B) A specific review of point systems and
			 ranges of point assignments utilized by other states.
C) An exhaustive and detailed review of the
			 current Illinois point system.
D)
			 Based on the above, the relative criticality of the violations was determined
			 and the specific number of points to be assigned was proposed, discussed, and
			 agreed upon by the consensus of the group.
