It's possible my friend received bad info from DPS..... certainly.Jumping Frog wrote:The only scenario under which someone could be at risk would be if their home state license is automatically revoked when they become a non-resident of that state. The reciprocity would not apply because they did not have a valid license any longer.
However, that certainly would not apply to a license like a UT license that was already non-resident to begin with. I also reviewed the WA laws regarding revocation and moving out of state is not a reason to revoke -- in fact, WA issues non-resident permits.
I believe he received inaccurate information. We certainly have seen occasional instances where a specific LEO makes a statement about how he/she thought the law ought to work instead of what the law actually says.
I held the same opinion as you, until he went through that discussion with DPS.
So... Caveat emptor, I guess.
