What to Do After Driver's License Revocation?
1 Answers
If your license was revoked due to accumulating 12 penalty points from traffic violations or failing to renew an expired license, you can immediately apply for retraining and retake the exams to obtain a new driver's license. For those whose licenses were revoked for drunk driving or driving commercial vehicles under the influence of alcohol, they may reapply after five years. If the license was revoked for drunk driving a commercial vehicle, reapplying is permitted after ten years. However, if a major traffic accident occurred due to drunk or alcohol-impaired driving that constitutes a crime, the offender is permanently barred from reapplying for a driver's license. Retake process after license revocation: You must reapply after the revocation period ends. This involves retaking all four driving tests (Theory Test, Field Test, Road Test, and Safety Test). Passing all four exams qualifies you for a new license. Common revocation scenarios: Driving without displaying a valid license plate or using an expired temporary plate results in immediate revocation. Obstructing, forging license plates, or using fake temporary plates also lead to revocation. Driving commercial vehicles under the influence of alcohol or while intoxicated will get your license revoked. Drunk or impaired driving causing a major accident classified as a crime results in permanent revocation with no chance of reapplying.
