TOTTING Meaning and
Definition
-
Totting is a term that refers to the process of adding up points or penalties on an individual’s driving record. It primarily pertains to traffic offenses and infractions committed by a driver. When a driver is charged with multiple traffic violations within a specified period of time, each violation carries a certain number of penalty points. These points are then accumulated or totaled up, resulting in the driver having an increased number of penalty points on their record, also known as a "totting up" of points.
In some jurisdictions, if a driver reaches or exceeds a specific threshold of penalty points within a particular time frame (such as 12 points within three years), they may face severe consequences, including the potential suspension of their driver's license. This accumulation of points can impact a driver’s insurance premiums as well, as insurance companies often consider a driver with a high number of penalty points to be of higher risk.
The totting system serves as a means of tracking and evaluating a driver’s behavior on the road, discouraging the continuous committing of traffic offenses. By imposing penalties based on the number of points accrued, authorities aim to promote safe driving practices and deter individuals from engaging in reckless or dangerous behavior while operating a vehicle.

Etymology of TOTTING
The word "totting" comes from the verb "to tot". The origin of "tot" can be traced back to the early 19th century, originating from a dialect form of "tote". "Tote" itself is derived from Middle English and Old English, where it meant "to carry". Over time, "tot" specifically came to mean "to carry a load or burden" in informal or colloquial usage. Hence, "totting" refers to the act of carrying or transporting something or someone.
