(1) A driver whose record review date is on or after the person has reached 18 years of age is subject to the Adult Driver Improvement Program.

(3) The following apply to adult restrictions:

(a) DMV will restrict the license or instruction permit of an adult driver to prohibit driving between the hours of 12 midnight and 5 a.m., unless driving between home and work or driving for purposes of employment.

(b) DMV will impose the restriction for a period of 30 days. DMV will notify the adult driver by letter that the restriction will begin 30 days from the date of the letter. During the restriction period, the adult driver must carry the restriction letter at all times the person is driving a motor vehicle.

(c) DMV will not impose a restriction for an adult driver who does not have valid driving privileges at the time of the record review date.

(4) DMV will suspend the driving privileges or right to apply for driving privileges of an adult driver who within the 24-month period immediately prior to the record review date has five driver improvement offenses.

(5) For each subsequent driver improvement offense, DMV will suspend the driving privileges or right to apply for driving privileges of an adult driver, regardless of a previous or current Driver Improvement Program suspension(s), who within the 24-month period immediately prior to the record review date has five or more driver improvement offenses.

(6) The suspension period under sections (4) and (5) of this rule will be for 30 days. The suspension will run concurrently with any other suspension, revocation, or cancellation in effect at the time the suspension begins.
