a) A person who is convicted of operating a
motor vehicle in violation of the restrictions imposed on a driver's license
shall have his/her driving privileges suspended by the Department. If a
corrected driver's license that removes the restriction that was violated at
the time of arrest is issued on or prior to the conviction date of the incoming
conviction for a first offense of a driver's license restriction violation, no
action shall be taken against the individual by the Department.
b) Miscellaneous suspensions shall not be
considered prior suspensions for the purpose of this Section.
c) When considering prior convictions, only
convictions for operating a motor vehicle in violation of restrictions on a
driver's license within seven years prior to the arrest date of the incoming
conviction shall be considered.
d)
Only those suspensions currently in effect or pending or suspensions or
revocations cleared within seven years prior to the forthcoming suspension's
effective date shall be considered as prior suspensions or
revocations.
e) If a person has no
prior suspensions or revocations of any kind and a conviction for operating a
motor vehicle in violation of the restrictions imposed on a driver's license,
the Department shall take action as follows:

i) If
a conviction for operating a motor vehicle in violation of the restrictions
imposed on a driver's license shows an arrest date during a period of
revocation that is in effect, the revocation shall be extended for one year
from the date of the conviction or the latest projected eligibility date on
record, whichever is the greater period of time. If a conviction for operating
a motor vehicle in violation of the restrictions imposed on a driver's license
shows an arrest date during a period of suspension (including curfew and night
time driving restriction suspensions) that is still in effect, the suspension
shall be extended the same amount of time as the originally imposed suspension
in accordance with IVC Section 6-303.
j) If a person has a suspension in effect
pursuant to IVC Section 6-113(d)and receives a subsequent conviction for
operating a motor vehicle in violation of the restrictions imposed on a
driver's license, the suspension shall be amended in accordance with the
guidelines of subsections (e) through (h).
