Abstract This study maps the effectivity of the demerit point system in order to find possible complementing measures to the demerit point system and improve the existing ones. Our analysis was done on data from point system since 7/2006 till 12/2013 and national road safety and traffic accident statistic since 2006 till 2015. Results show, that decrease in road fatalities and serious injuries is partly caused by socioeconomic development and that Czech demerit point system has some severe weaknesses and inappropriate focus. That is why it fails in preventing young drivers and repeated offenders from (re)offending.
