The New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) details on its official website which actions can lead to a state driver’s license becoming completely unusable.
This process, better known as revocation, determines that the driver’s license is officially canceled and that its holder must apply for a new one from scratch, as long as the authorities allow it.
New York driver’s licenses may be revoked for those who commit the offenses and violations on this list
According to the DMV, a driver’s license may be revoked for any of the following reasons:
- A vehicle was driven or allowed to be driven without insurance
- A traffic accident was involved without insurance
- A conviction was received for a serious traffic violation or for multiple offenses
- A DMV driving test was failed
- Lies were told in what was said to obtain a driver’s license or registration
- The person drove in a traffic accident that involved a death
Steps to follow for those whose driver’s license is revoked
The authorities explain that for most revocations it is first necessary to request and receive approval from the DMV’s Driver Improvement Unit (DIU).
