to suspension of driving privilege.
A. 1. Following receipt of notification and a request for
driving privilege suspension from a municipal or district court
clerk as provided for in Section 1115.1 of this title or Section 1
of this act, Service Oklahoma shall:
a. suspend the privilege of the person to operate a motor
vehicle in this state; or
b. request suspension of the driving privilege of the
person in the state which issued the license as
provided by the Nonresident Violator Compact.
A person whose license is subject to suspension pursuant to this
section may avoid the effective date of the suspension or, if
suspended, shall be eligible for reinstatement, if otherwise
eligible, upon meeting the requirements of subsection C of this
section.
2. Service Oklahoma may decline to initiate such suspension
action if the request is discovered to be improper or questionable.
3. Service Oklahoma shall not be required to issue more than
one suspension of the driving privilege of a person in the event
multiple requests for suspensions are received from a court clerk
based upon the failure of the person to appear at a particular time
and date on multiple charges.
B. Following receipt of a request from another jurisdiction for
the suspension of the driving privilege of an Oklahoma resident as
provided by the Nonresident Violator Compact, Service Oklahoma, if
the request appears to be valid, shall initiate suspension of the
privilege of the person to operate a motor vehicle in this state.
If suspended, such suspension shall remain in effect until the
person meets the requirements of subsection C of this section.

state pursuant to the provisions of this section may avoid the
effective date of suspension, or if suspended in this state, shall
be eligible for reinstatement, if otherwise eligible, upon:
a. making application therefore to Service Oklahoma, and
b. showing proof from the court or court clerk that the
person has entered an appearance in the case which was
the basis for the suspension action and was released
by the court as provided for by the Nonresident
Violator Compact or consistent provisions, and
c. submitting with the application the fees, as provided
for in Section 6-212 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma
Statutes. The fees shall be remitted to the State
Treasurer to be credited to the General Revenue Fund

of the suspension and reinstatement as provided for in this section
from the file of the individual licensee and maintain an internal

purposes.
D. Any person whose driving privilege is suspended or subject
to suspension in this state pursuant to the provisions of this

suspension action pending receipt of further information or
documentation from the person or from the jurisdiction requesting
such suspension, or pending review of the record, or other inquiry.

suspension action shall be withdrawn or vacated without the
requirement of a processing fee and a reinstatement fee and Service

the suspension. If, however, the request for suspension appears
valid, Service Oklahoma shall proceed with suspension of the driving
privilege of the person and the person shall have the right to
appeal as provided for by Section 6-211 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma
Statutes. Provided, however, the court shall not consider
modification, but shall either sustain or vacate the order of
requested
