Suspensión o revocación de licencias por infracciones fuera de Arizona

Explicación Simple

Si cometes una infracción de tráfico en otro estado, tu licencia en Arizona puede ser suspendida o revocada. También tendrás que tomar clases de educación vial para recuperarla.

Es como si te castigaran en casa porque rompiste algo en casa de un amigo; aunque no fue en tu casa, las reglas siguen aplicando.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan, que vive en Arizona, recibe una multa por exceso de velocidad en California. Cuando regresa a casa, su licencia es suspendida porque la infracción en California es grave y se aplica la misma penalización en Arizona.

Penalidades
