A 19-year-old is convicted of using a fraudulent driver license to obtain alcohol. What license consequence does the law require?
-
A.
A three-month license suspension
-
B.
A written warning on a first offense
-
C.
A one-year revocation Correct
-
D.
A 30-day suspension
The answer is "A one-year revocation"
North Carolina law requires a one-year driver license revocation on conviction for an underage person who obtains or attempts to obtain alcohol by using a fraudulent ID. Choice D pulls the 30-day figure from the DWI pre-trial revocation printed earlier in the same chapter and misapplies it to the underage fake-ID penalty.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. A three-month license suspension
The manual sets no three-month penalty for this offense. Guesses a mid-length suspension remembered from another state's underage alcohol rule.
B. A written warning on a first offense
The statute requires revocation on conviction with no first-offense grace. Assumes the first-offense warning some states grant for minor underage-possession citations carries over here.
D. A 30-day suspension
The 30-day figure belongs to the pre-trial revocation that follows a 0.08 BAC chemical test, not the underage fake-ID penalty. Carries over the 30-day pre-trial DWI revocation printed earlier in the chapter and applies it to the underage fake-ID offense.
