I need information about drivers from other states obtaining a restricted license in NY.
================
Do you currently have a driver's license in another state?
Yes, I have a Pennsylvania driver's license.
As long as you meet the requirements to obtain a restricted license, you can get a restricted driving privilege to drive in NY. The restrictions will be the same as those for other licensed NY drivers.
================
What about a conditional license?
Conditional licenses can be issued to qualified drivers who have had their license suspended or revoked due to alcohol or drug violations.
I have a drug violation on my record. Are there any other requirements?
Yes, those wishing to obtain a Conditional license must attend an Impaired Driver Program approved by the DMV.
================
How is a restricted license different from a conditional license?
Restricted licenses are given to qualified drivers who have had their license revoked or suspended for reasons that are not alcohol or drug related.
================
Where do I apply for a restricted license?
You will have to apply for the license in person at a DMV office. Most DMV offices have this service available, but it's best to contact your nearest office to find out where to apply.
