HARRISBURG Governor
George M. Leader has announced
an entirely new system of license
suspension penalties for viola
tors of Pennsylvania’s Motor
Vehicle Code.
“I have instructed Secretary of
Revenue Gerald A. Gleeson to
put this new program into effect
at once in the Bureau of High
way Safety,” Governor Leader
said and added, “I sincerely be
lieve this new procedure assures
Pennsylvania motorists a more
equitable system of penalties
while maintaining our excellent
highway safety standards.
“Our reasons for establishing
this new are two-fold,”
Governor Leader said. “First, the
issuing of restricted driving
licenses has been done on \ dis
cretionary basis which imposed
an undue burden on the opera
tor and on the Secretary of
Revenue.
“Under this new policy, there
will be no restricted driving
licenses issued.
“Secondly,” the Governor ex
plained, “under our former policy
of suspension, many of the courts
in Pennsylvania questioned the
reasonableness of the penalty
and refused to sustain the sus
pension. We feel our new sys*
tem of graduated* penalties, de
pendang on the character of the
violation and prior record of the
violator, will eliminate the ques
tion of ‘reasonableness’ in the
States courts.
“This new procedure recogn
izes that the real problem in
enforcing our motor vehicle code
is with the repeater and the
penalties therefore, are more
(severe for this type of violator,”’
Governor Leader said
“The success of our highway
safety enforcement now is based
on both certainty and seventy.”
The new policy was establish
ed after an extensive survey and
review of hundreds of typical
Bureau of Highway Safety, the
Justice Department and the
State Police.
The penalties for the second
and third offense within a three

Two military officers from
Formosa, Lt. Col. Ho Shueh of

year period are more severe
-than the penalty for the first
offense. The penalty after three
offenses within the three year
period shall be fixed by the Sec
retary of Revenue-
“For the first time in nearly
20 years,” Governor Leader said,
“it will be possible for a first
offender to receive a letter of
‘warning’ rather than a suspen
sion,”
For speeding offenses a viola
tor may receive anything from a
letter of “warning” on first of
fense to a 180 day suspension on
third offense depending on how
fast he was driving heyond the
fixed speed limit.
On other motor vehicle code
violations such as driving too
fast for conditions, improper
turning, reckless driving, follow
ing too closely, etc., the viola
tor may receive a letter of warn
ing on first offense or a 30 day
suspension on third offense.
One of the most severe, penal
ties faces those who drive dur
ing suspension or are guilty of
racing These violators face a
suspension of 180 days on first
offense.
A complete table of the new
system of penalties for viola
tions of the Pennsylvania Motor
Vehicle Code is attached. Any
violation not listed is subject to
penalty at the discretion of the
Secretary of Revenue.
