Out of State Revocations

Traveling out-of-state is a common occurrence for most Illinois residents. It’s important to know that when you are driving in another state you are subject to that state’s traffic laws, including the laws pertaining to driving under the influence. However, an out-of-state DUI can still put your ability to drive in Illinois at risk.

Illinois is a member of the Interstate Driver’s License Compact (IDLC), which is an agreement between states to exchange information when a non-resident commits a driving offense in their state. This means that the DUI conviction will be reported to the Illinois Secretary of State and your Illinois license will be revoked for a minimum of one year as well as face any fines and penalties issued by the state in which the offense occurred.
