## Out-of-State Conviction 

Convictions occurring outside North Carolina may result in your license being suspended or revoked just as if the violations occurred in this state. If a suspension occurs, the Division must notify you by correspondence of the effective date of the suspension. 

## Failure to Appear and/or to Pay a Fine 

When the division receives notification that you failed to appear in court or pay court fines for a citation received in North Carolina or another state, you will be notified of the effective date of the revocation if not paid prior to the date indicated on the correspondence. The revocation will remain in effect until the division is notified by the court that the citation or fine has been complied with and may result in you having to pay appropriate fees to DMV to obtain a duplicate license. Complying with the citation does not relieve you of the consequences for the actual offense if convicted. 

## Provisional Licensee (under age 18) 

There are other rules that apply to persons under 18 years of age. If you are a provisional licensee, your license may be suspended for: 

• 30 days, upon conviction of a second moving violation occurring within a 12-month period; 

• 90 days, upon conviction of a third moving violation occurring within a 12-month period; and 

• Six months, upon conviction of a fourth moving violation occurring within a 12-month period. 

## Some examples of moving violations: 

• Passing a stopped school bus; 

• Reckless driving; 

• Hit-and-run; 

• Following too closely; 

• Driving on the wrong side of the road; 

• Illegal passing; 

• Running through a stop sign or red light; 

• Failure to yield right of way; 

• Failure to stop for an emergency siren; and 

• Speeding.
