For any other violation, the director shall not assess such person with any points under section 60-4,182 for such violation when the person is placed on probation until the director is advised by the court that such person previously placed on probation has violated the terms of his or her probation and such probation has been revoked. Upon receiving notice of revocation of probation, the director shall assess to such person the points which such person would have been assessed had the person not been placed on probation. All such points shall be assessed as of the date of the violation. When a person fails to successfully complete probation, the court shall notify the director immediately.

Annotations: A certified abstract for conviction report must include judgment of conviction to authorize revocation or suspension of motor vehicle operator's license. Hyland v. State, 194 Neb. 737, 235 N.W.2d 236 (1975). A violation of a city ordinance which tracks section 60-413 is a two-point violation under section 39-669.26 (transferred to section 60-4,182) for which a report to the Director of Motor Vehicles is required by this section. Maciejewski v. Sullivan, 193 Neb. 598, 228 N.W.2d 294 (1975). The offense of failing to carry an operator's license when operating a motor vehicle on the public highways is a traffic violation for which two points are to be assessed, and for which a report to the Department of Motor Vehicles is required. Coffee v. Sullivan, 191 Neb. 781, 217 N.W.2d 918 (1974). Where docket entry shown in abstract failed to meet the required criteria hereunder, the purported conviction was improperly relied on in proceeding to revoke operator's license under point system. Baker v. Sullivan, 191 Neb. 707, 217 N.W.2d 483 (1974). The determinations required in this and companion sections are simple ministerial matters. Stauffer v. Weedlun, 188 Neb. 105, 195 N.W.2d 218 (1972). Certified abstract is required to be sent to Director of Department of Motor Vehicles only where the accused is convicted or his bail is forfeited. State ex rel. Line v. Kuhlman, 167 Neb. 674, 94 N.W.2d 373 (1959). This section applies to certification of conviction by county court. Bradford v. Ress, 167 Neb. 338, 93 N.W.2d 17 (1958).
