Waec Model Questions Vol1 2020 Civic Education Question 2

On a Saturday, Chinedu drives on a highway with a speed limit of 80 km/h. He is recorded traveling at 110 km/h (30 km/h over). Later, at a junction, he fails to stop at a red traffic light, causing a near‑miss with a motorcycle. Afterwards, he passes a pedestrian crossing without giving way, and the pedestrian files a complaint. According to the 2020 Nigerian Traffic Act, the penalties are: (i) 3 demerit points for each 10 km/h over the limit, (ii) 4 demerit points for running a red light, (iii) 2 demerit points for failing to give way to a pedestrian. A driver whose total points reach 12 within a 12‑month period has his licence suspended for 6 months. Chinedu had accumulated 5 points earlier in the year. Determine whether Chinedu's licence will be suspended after these offenses, and state the total points accumulated.
