Temporary operator's permit

If the decision of an administrative hearing officer at the conclusion of a hearing is that a person's operator's license or privilege be revoked or suspended for refusing a blood-alcohol test or testing at least eight one-hundredths of one percent by weight of alcohol, the hearing officer, if the conditions warrant, may issue a temporary operator's permit on a form provided therefor, extending operating privileges for not more than four hours from the time the decision is announced after the hearing, to allow the person to return to the person's home. Both the temporary operator's permit provided by this section, and the one provided by North Dakota Century Code chapter 39-20, to be issued by an arresting officer, are valid only if accompanied by the licensee's copy of the uniform traffic complaint and summons (traffic citation), if any, issued by the arresting officer.
