Good afternoon, I need help with something. I got a driving restriction a while ago and need to know how long it could be last or if there is any way it can be reduced?
================
Is your restriction alcohol - related?
Yes, it was.
For alcohol-related revocations, it will have a validity period of 5 years from the date you received you driver license or permit.
And what about if it that restriction wasn't alcohol-related, instead?
In that case, the restriction will only remain in effect for a period of two years from the date you received your driver license or permit.
================
That's ok. Um, just by curiosity, what would happens if by any chance i got a moving violation conviction just before i obtain my driver license which is having the restriction issue?
Certainly there would be consequences, most remarkably the withdrawn of the approval for your driver license or permit. For that, you should have been convicted for any of the next: following too closely or tailgating,  or speeding or being in a speed contest.
================
Righ, right. Should be obvious but, what if i'm convicted for any of those?
Then sorry, but your license will be inevitably revoked.
That wouldn't be of any good, i guess. Well, ok, one more question, please. Where i can find info about installation fees, please?
For those, you can visit the Ignition Interlock page, at the NYS Division of Criminal Justice Services website. Remember to do it if you are going to install devices in any vehicle you own or operate.
