5driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as a condition to
6the issuance of a restricted driving permit, require the
7petitioner to participate in a designated driver remedial or
8rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is authorized to
9cancel a restricted driving permit if the permit holder does

7offense of reckless homicide or a similar out-of-state offense,
8the person may never apply for a license or permit.
9    (d)(1) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
10under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
11local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, the
12Secretary of State shall revoke the driving privileges of that
13person. One year after the date of revocation, and upon
