302.225. 1. Every court having jurisdiction over offenses committed [under] as provided in sections 302.010 to 302.780, or any other law of this state, or county or municipal ordinance, regulating the operation of vehicles on highways, shall, within ten days thereafter, forward to the Missouri [state highway patrol] department of revenue in a manner approved by the director of the department of [public safety] revenue a record of any plea or finding of guilty of any person in the court for a violation of sections 302.010 to 302.780 or for any moving traffic violation under the laws of this state or county or municipal ordinances, except such record where a suspended imposition of sentence is imposed in a regular passenger vehicle violation. The record related to offenses involving alcohol, controlled substances, or drugs shall be entered in the Missouri uniform law enforcement system records. [The record of all convictions involving the assessment of points as provided in section 302.302 and convictions involving a commercial motor vehicle as defined in section 302.700 shall be forwarded by the highway patrol within fifteen days of receipt to the director of revenue.]

2. Whenever any person is convicted of any offense or series of offenses for which sections 302.010 to 302.340 makes mandatory the suspension or revocation of the license of such person by the director of revenue, the circuit court in which such conviction is had shall require the surrender to it of all licenses, then held by the person so convicted, and the court shall within ten days thereafter forward the same, together with a record of the conviction, to the director of revenue.

3. No municipal judge or municipal official shall have power to revoke any license.

302.306. 1. For the first full year of operation without conviction for a moving violation, the total accumulated point value charged against an operator shall be reduced by one-third.

2. For the second consecutive full year of operation without conviction of a moving violation, the remaining total accumulated point value charged against an operator shall be reduced by one-half.

3. For the third consecutive full year of operation without conviction for a moving violation, the remaining accumulated point value charged against an operator shall be withdrawn.

4. For the purpose of reducing points pursuant to this section, the time period without conviction shall begin to run no later than thirty days after the date of the conviction for which points have been assessed.
