Sec. 6. (a) A person whose driving privileges are suspended under section 1(c) of this chapter:

(1) is entitled to credit for any days during which the license was suspended under IC 9-30-6-9(c); and

(2) may not receive any credit for days during which the person's driving privileges were suspended under IC 9-30-6-9(b).

(b) A period of suspension of driving privileges imposed under section 1(c) of this chapter must be consecutive to any period of suspension imposed under IC 9-30-6-9(b). However, if the state and defendant agree pursuant to a term in an accepted plea agreement, or if the court finds at sentencing that it is in the best interest of society, the court shall terminate all or any part of the remaining suspension under IC 9-30-6-9(b) and shall enter this finding in its sentencing order.

(c) The bureau shall designate a period of suspension of driving privileges imposed under section 1(c) of this chapter as consecutive to any period of suspension imposed under IC 9-30-6-9(b) unless the sentencing order of the court under subsection (b) terminates all or part of the remaining suspension under IC 9-30-6-9(b).
