The special regional restrictions depend upon the area of the state in which you are driving. Violations: Your junior license will be suspended for 60 days if you are convicted of committing a serious traffic violation (generally three points or more) or two other violations while you hold a junior license. Your junior license will be revoked for 60 days if you are convicted of a serious violation (generally three points or more) or two other violations within the first six months after you receive your privileges back following suspension or revocation. *Please refer to page 15 for a complete description of penalties and points.
