(1)Whenever a person who is seventeen
(17)years of age or younger but not less than
fourteen
(14)years of age is convicted of a violation of any offense in this chapter
or is adjudicated delinquent as a result of any act which would be an offense under
this chapter, the court may, in addition to any other penalty:
(a)If the person has a motor vehicle or motorcycle operator's license, recommend
the revocation of the license for a period not to exceed one
(1)year, if it is the
person's first offense;
(b)If the person has a motor vehicle or motorcycle operator's license, recommend
the revocation of the license for two
(2)years, if it is a second or subsequent
offense so long as the suggested period of revocation does not extend beyond
the person's eighteenth birthday; and
(c)If the person has no motor vehicle or motorcycle operator's license, in the
event of a first offense, recommend that no such license shall be issued to
such person for the period described in paragraph
(a)of this subsection and in
the event of a second or subsequent offense, recommend that no license shall
be issued to such person for the period described in paragraph
(b)of this
subsection.
