P.R. Laws tit. 9, § 5583
When a person has been convicted of an offense which, had he/she been a licensed driver, would have entailed suspension of his/her license, the Secretary shall not issue to said person a driver’s license for a period equal to the one such a suspension would have entailed, starting from the date of the conviction.
When the penalty of suspension is imposed on a driver whose license has been already suspended, the term of such a suspension shall begin when the term of the first suspension has expired.
Should any provision of this chapter require the permanent revocation of the license or licenses, the convicted defendant shall forever be barred from being authorized to drive any motor vehicle on the public roads. Should the convicted defendant hold a learner’s permit any suspension of a license shall be deemed to include such a learner’s permit.
