Which of the following will cause an Illinois driver to lose his or her driving privileges in all states?

• A. DUI charges
• B. Reckless homicide
• C. Leaving the scene of a crash
• D. All Of The Above

Answer: (D)

What’s being tested is how penalties for serious driving offenses are shared across states through interstate agreements. When Illinois suspends or revokes a driver’s license for offenses like DUI, leaving the scene of a crash, or reckless homicide, other states usually honor that action due to reciprocity programs and reporting systems (such as the Driver’s License Compact and the National Driver Register). These mechanisms require states to suspend or revoke licenses for certain offenses and to communicate those penalties, so a suspension or revocation in Illinois is commonly recognized everywhere. Because all three of these offenses are treated as grounds for losing driving privileges and are shared across states, the result is a loss of driving privileges in most or all states.
