| (a) Except as provided elsewhere in this Section, every
| 9 |

| expire 4 years from the date of its issuance, or at such later
| 11 |
| date, as the Secretary of State may by proper rule and | 12 |
| regulation designate,
not to exceed 12 calendar months; in the | 13 |
| event
that an applicant for renewal of a driver's license fails

| not less than 3 years nor
more than 5 years from the date of | 4 |
