2. Suspension terms. If a person is convicted or adjudicated of a moving motor vehicle violation that occurred during the period of the provisional license, the Secretary of State shall suspend the license:
A. For 30 days on the 1st offense;
B. For 60 days on the 2nd offense; and
C. For 90 days on the 3rd or subsequent offense.
If requested, the Secretary of State shall provide an opportunity for a hearing on the suspension as soon as practicable. After the hearing, the Secretary of State, for good cause shown, may continue, modify or rescind the suspension.
