It should be per software. Maybe per software version, if the company can conclusively prove that the prior problems that led to points cannot happen again.

How can you prove that without putting them back out on the road first? Surely, you'd agree that more is needed than just unit testing?

Closed course real world testing. I naively expect that you could test most of the listed situations in a small-medium size parking lot.

A driving exam also happens on the road. I'd suggest a similar, supervised test series with mandatory emergency drivers.
