What offense can lead to a driver losing his/her license immediately?

Speeding more than 75 mph in a 55 mph zone
Driving with a suspended license
Driving without insurance
Exceeding the speed limit by 5 mph

The correct answer is: Speeding more than 75 mph in a 55 mph zone

The offense that can lead to immediate license suspension involves speeding significantly over the limit, specifically when driving more than 75 mph in a 55 mph zone. This severe violation is classified as reckless or aggressive driving, and it poses a dangerous risk to both the driver and others on the road. Laws differentiate between minor and major speeding offenses, with more than 75 mph being considered a serious breach of traffic regulations, potentially resulting in immediate actions by law enforcement, including the suspension of the driver’s license. In contrast, driving with a suspended license typically results in further penalties but does not cause immediate suspension since the license is already suspended. Driving without insurance can lead to fines and other consequences, but it does not directly lead to an immediate loss of driving privileges in the same way as excessive speeding. Finally, exceeding the speed limit by just 5 mph is usually considered a minor infraction and typically results in a warning or a small fine rather than immediate license suspension.
