MIP - MIC Licensing Consequences.
If you are under age 18 at the time of arrest, a conviction for minor in possession (MIP) or minor in consumption (MIC) of alcohol will result in a one year driver's license revocation for a first offense.
The revocation increases to two years for a second conviction for MIP or MIC if under 18 at the time of arrest.
Convictions include a finding of guilt after a trial, a plea of guilty, a deferred sentence, a diversion or a bail forfeiture.
Even though your license may be revoked, the Department of Licensing will allow for an early reinstatement of driving privileges after 90 days on the first conviction, or 1 year on the second conviction.
For this to be accomplished, the Department of Licensing must receive a Request for Early Reinstatement from the court or diversion agency.
For your license to be reinstated after a conviction, you must past the knowledge and driving examinations and pay a $75 reissue fee.
Unlike many other suspensions, the Department of Licensing will not require proof of financial responsibility (SR-22) insurance certificate.
