This paragraph does not apply if the other jurisdiction in which the offense was committed suspended or revoked the person's operating privilege in that other jurisdiction as a result of the conviction and the period of suspension or revocation in that other jurisdiction has expired or if, at the time of the conviction, the person was licensed in or resided in another jurisdiction.

This paragraph does not apply if the other jurisdiction in which the offense was committed suspended or revoked the person's operating privilege in that other jurisdiction as a result of the conviction and the period of suspension or revocation in that other jurisdiction has expired or if, at the time of the conviction, the person was licensed in or resided in another jurisdiction.
SECTION 78. 343.32 (1v) of the statutes is created to read:
343.32 (1v) The secretary may suspend or revoke the operating privilege of any person who is a licensee under this chapter or is a resident to whom another jurisdiction has not issued an operator's license upon receiving notice of the suspension or revocation in another jurisdiction of the person's operating privilege for an offense therein which, if committed in this state, would have been cause for suspension or revocation under any law of this state or which is identified in the rules under s. 343.02 (3) (b) as an offense for which a person is subject to suspension or revocation, or upon receiving notice of any circumstances occurring in another jurisdiction which, if occurring in this state, would have been cause for administrative suspension under s. 343.305 (7) (a). This subsection does not apply if the period of suspension or revocation in the other jurisdiction has expired or if, at the time of the offense or time that the circumstances occurred, the person was licensed in or resided in another jurisdiction. This subsection does not apply with respect to any suspension or revocation in another jurisdiction for failure to comply with the order of, or appear before, a court of that other jurisdiction.

343.32 (2) (a) The secretary may suspend a person's the operating privilege of a person who is a licensee under this chapter or is a resident to whom another jurisdiction has not issued an operator's license if the person appears by the records of the department to be a habitually reckless or negligent operator of a motor vehicle or to have repeatedly violated any of the state traffic laws, any local ordinance enacted under ch. 349 or any traffic laws enacted by a federally recognized American Indian tribe or band in this state if the tribal traffic laws violated strictly conform to provisions in chs. 341 to 348 or, if the offense occurred on a federal military installation located in this state, any federal law which is in strict conformity with a state traffic law, or any law of another jurisdiction for an offense therein which, if committed in this state, would have been cause for demerit point assessment under this subsection. The secretary may not consider, for purposes of this paragraph, any offense occurring in another jurisdiction if, at the time of any conviction for the offense, the person was licensed in or resided in another jurisdiction. For the purpose of determining when to suspend an operating privilege under this subsection, the secretary may determine and adopt by rule a method of weighing traffic convictions by their seriousness and may, subject to the limitations in this subsection, change such weighted scale as experience or the accident frequency in the state makes necessary or desirable.
SECTION 80. 343.325 (4) of the statutes is amended to read:
