Before graduating from Level Two to Level Three, a provisional licensee must have no convictions for moving violations, seat belt, or cell phone infractions for how long?
-
A.
Since the license was issued
-
B.
Six months Correct
-
C.
Three months
-
D.
Twelve months
The answer is "Six months"
The manual sets a six-month clean-record window: no convictions for moving violations, seat belt, or cell phone infractions in the preceding six months before applying for the Full Provisional License. Twelve months is the trap, because a yearlong clean-record window is the figure drivers import from other states' GDL programs, where the final step commonly looks back a full year.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Since the license was issued
The rule looks back only six months, not across the entire Level Two stage. Drivers trained under a points system that scores convictions across the whole provisional period assume North Carolina works the same way.
C. Three months
Shorter than the six-month clean-record window the manual requires. Drivers who sat through a brief court probation on a first minor infraction remember that probation period and assume the GDL lookback matches it.
D. Twelve months
Doubles the required six-month window. A yearlong clean-record requirement is the common final-stage rule in other states' GDL programs, and drivers carry it over to North Carolina.
