(1) one month from the date on which the license, privilege to drive, or privilege to obtain a license was suspended or revoked for a first conviction of the particular offense from which the suspension or revocation resulted;

(2) three months from the date on which the license, privilege to drive, or privilege to obtain a license was suspended or revoked for a second conviction within 12 consecutive months of the same offense from which the suspension or revocation resulted;

(3) one year from the date on which the license, privilege to drive, or privilege to obtain a license was suspended or revoked for a third or subsequent conviction within 12 consecutive months of the same offense from which the suspension or revocation resulted.

(f) Unless otherwise provided by law, periods of limitation shall be made at the discretion of the court.

(g) Except as provided under AS 28.15.183 (h), the department may not issue a new license or reissue a license to a person whose driver's license has been revoked under AS 04.16.050 , AS 28.15.183 , or 28.15.185 unless the person, if required to participate in a juvenile alcohol safety action program, has successfully completed any education or treatment recommended.
