CHAPTER 378
SENATE BILL 164

AN ACT TO AMEND G.S. 20-28.1 TO CONFORM ITS SUSPENSION AND REVOCATION PROVISIONS TO THOSE CONTAINED IN G.S. 20-19(d) AND (e).

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

Section 1.  G.S. 20-28.1(c) is hereby rewritten to read as follows:
"(c)	Any person whose driving privilege has been suspended or revoked under this section for 12 months may apply for a license after 90 days; any person whose license has been suspended or revoked under this section for two years may apply for a license after 12 months; any person whose license has been suspended or revoked under this section permanently may apply for a license after three years. Upon the filing of such application the Division may, with or without a hearing, issue a new license upon satisfactory proof that the former licensee has not been convicted within the suspension or revocation period of a violation of any provision of the motor vehicle laws, liquor laws, or drug laws of North Carolina or any other state. The new license may be issued upon such terms and conditions which the Division may see fit to impose for the balance of the suspension or revocation period. When the suspension or revocation period is permanent, the terms and conditions imposed by the Division may not exceed three years."
Sec. 2.  G.S. 20-28. 1(d) is hereby repealed.
Sec. 3.  This act shall become effective on October 1, 1979.
In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 17th day of April, 1979.
