Practice question

How long must a person wait to reapply for a license if it was permanently revoked and they have no habitually DWI convictions?

  1. Two years
  2. Three years
  3. Five years
  4. Ten years

Answer: B — Three years

In North Carolina, a person who has had their driver's license permanently revoked due to certain offenses must wait a specific period before they can reapply for a new license. If the individual does not have any habitually impaired driving convictions (such as multiple DWI offenses), they are eligible to reapply for a license after three years have passed since the revocation. This three-year waiting period is established under the state's laws governing drivers' licenses and applies specifically to those individuals whose revocations are not related to habitual DWI offenses. It's essential for applicants to understand these timelines so they can comply with the legal requirements and plan their reapplication accordingly.
