Clerks should notify the Department of Public Safety of a minor's license suspension immediately after conviction because the suspension is effective on the 11th day after the judgment of conviction.

• A. Not specified
• B. Cannot be determined
• C. False
• D. True

Answer: (D)

The important idea is the timing of a minor’s license suspension and who must trigger it. For these cases, the license suspension becomes effective on the 11th day after the judgment of conviction. To make sure the suspension starts on that exact date, the court clerk must notify the Department of Public Safety promptly, immediately after the conviction is recorded. That prompt notice gives DPS the information and time needed to process and implement the suspension by the 11th day. Since the statute sets a clear effective date and a requirement to inform DPS, the statement is correct. The other options don’t fit because the rule is definite, not unspecified or undeterminable.
