   (a) A person is subject to revocation, under (b) of this section, of the person's driver's license or permit, privilege to drive, or privilege to obtain a license if the person
        (1) is at least 13 years of age but not yet 21 years of age and is convicted of or is adjudicated a delinquent minor by a court for misconduct involving a controlled substance under AS 11.71 or a municipal ordinance with substantially similar elements; or
        (2) is at least 13 years of age but not yet 18 years of age and is convicted of or is adjudicated a delinquent minor by a court for an offense involving the illegal use or possession of a firearm that is punishable under AS 11 or a municipal ordinance with substantially similar elements.
   (b) The court shall impose the revocation for an offense described in (a) of this section as follows:
        (1) for a first conviction or adjudication, the revocation may be for a period not to exceed 90 days;
        (2) for a second or subsequent conviction or adjudication, the revocation may be for a period not to exceed one year.
   (c) When a person described in (a) of this section has been convicted of or adjudicated a delinquent minor for an offense listed in (a) of this section, the court may, upon petition of the person, review the revocation and may restore the driver's license, except a court may not restore the driver's license until
        (1) at least one-half of the period of revocation imposed under this section has expired; and
        (2) the person has taken and successfully completed a state approved program of drug education or rehabilitation if convicted or adjudicated of misconduct involving a controlled substance under AS 11.71 or a municipal ordinance with substantially similar elements; however, this paragraph does not apply to a person who resides in an area that does not offer a state approved drug education or rehabilitation program or a person that the court determines does not need drug education or rehabilitation.
   (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of AS 28.20.240 and 28.20.250, upon conviction of an offense specified in (a) of this section, the department may not require proof of financial responsibility before restoring or issuing the person's driver's license.
