Step-by-step explanation:

Drug offense is defined is defined to mean any criminal offense which proscribes the possession, distribution and manufacture, cultivation, sale, transfer or the attempt or conspiracy to possess, distribute, manufacture, cultivate, sell or transfer any substance, the possession of which is prohibited under the 'Controlled Substances Acts'. The term 'convicted' includes adjudicated under juvenile proceedings.

Therefore, if convicted of possession, selling or manufacturing illegal drugs, your driving licence will be suspended for at least 6 months, suspension of your license, regardless of whether you were driving when the alleged crime occurred. If it is the first time you have been convicted of a drug crime, your license will be suspended for six months. You will not be allowed to obtain a restricted license for the first 30 days of this suspension.

Any individual who is convicted of an additional drug crime within 7 years of the first conviction will face a one-year suspension of his or her driver's license. In this situation, you will not be eligible for a restricted license for the first 60 days of the suspension.
