185. When the total number of demerit points entered in a person’s record is equal to or greater than the number prescribed by regulation under paragraph 9 of section 619, the Société cancels the person’s driver’s licence or suspends the person’s right to obtain a licence.
The number of demerit points prescribed by regulation varies depending on whether the person is
(1)  under 23 years of age;
(2)  23 or 24 years of age; or
(3)  25 years of age or over.
If the number of demerit points entered in the person’s record is equal to or greater than the number prescribed by regulation but less than twice that number, no licence may be issued to the person
(1)  before three or six months have elapsed, depending on whether the person incurred no three-month cancellation or suspension or one three-month cancellation or suspension under section 191.2 or this section during the two years before the cancellation or suspension under the first paragraph; or
(2)  before twelve months have elapsed if the person incurred one six- or twelve-month cancellation or suspension or more than one cancellation or suspension under section 191.2 or this section during the two years before the cancellation or suspension under the first paragraph.
If the number of demerit points entered in the person’s record is equal to or greater than twice the number prescribed by regulation but less than three times that number, no licence may be issued to the person before six or twelve months have elapsed, depending on whether the person incurred no cancellation or suspension or one or more cancellations or suspensions under section 191.2 or this section during the two years before the cancellation or suspension under the first paragraph.
If the number of demerit points entered in the person’s record is equal to or greater than three times the number prescribed by regulation, no licence may be issued to the person before twelve months have elapsed.
For the purposes of this section, the two-year period before the cancellation or suspension includes the day the sanction is imposed.
When a person holds a driver’s licence and a learner’s licence, the cancellation under this section applies to both licences.

185. From the time the number of demerit points entered in a person’s file attains or exceeds the number prescribed by regulation, the Société must cancel the person’s driver’s licence or, if he no longer holds a driver’s licence, suspend his right to obtain one.
Where the person holds at the same time a driver’s licence and a learner’s licence of another class and the number of demerit points entered in his file attains or exceeds the number prescribed by regulation, the Société must cancel the driver’s licence and the learner’s licence of that person or, if he no longer holds a driver’s licence or a learner’s licence, suspend his right to obtain such a licence.
