As a general rule the answer is No but there is one big caveat; namely, because of the computer systems used by most jurisdictions this information may well be received by other jurisdictions where you have a drivers' license and that jurisdiction may suspend the license. A recent situation in a municipal court I appeared in demonstrated a very similar situation. The defendant was in court to try to negate a guilty plea he had entered to a moving violation where the NJ court did not suspend his license but another state had been notified of the guilty plea and on its own, suspended his out of state license. He was trying to withdraw his plea so that he could get his other license back. The Judge basically told him what I said above, i.e., NJ did not suspend his other license but because the other state had been notified of the violation, it was that state's policy to suspend the license.
