Practice question

How long is the license suspension for a Junior Operator's 3rd offense of drag racing?

  1. License suspension of 1 year
  2. License suspension of 2 years
  3. License suspension of 3 years
  4. License suspension of 180 days

Answer: C — License suspension of 3 years

The license suspension for a Junior Operator's third offense of drag racing is three years. This severe penalty is designed to deter young drivers from engaging in risky and dangerous behavior behind the wheel. Drag racing not only poses significant risks to the driver but also to others on the road. The extended suspension reflects the seriousness of repeat offenses, particularly for junior operators who are still in the process of developing responsible driving habits. By implementing stringent consequences for repeated infractions, Massachusetts aims to reinforce safe driving practices among young drivers and reduce the occurrence of high-risk behaviors.
