Sport Pilot and DUI/DWI

As there is no medical requirement for reporting, how will the FAA go
after Sport Pilot's with DUI/DWI convictions?

Good question. If you DUI enough to get your DL suspended or revoked you are
grounded.

Well, there's 61.15 but that's an "after the fact" self reporting
responsibility. I don't know of anything requiring a SP to report prior
convictions. Anybody?

Not withstanding the MEDICAL, you're required to report DUI enforcemtn
actions to the FAA security office:

er, and the FAA scans the National Driver Register which will show
convictions.

I thought that was only when applying for a medical.

Maybe. According to the FAQ...

Will FAA discover that I have an alcohol-related MVA if I don't report
it?
Yes, FAA Form 8500-8 "Application for Airmen Medical" contains an
express consent provision which authorizes the National Driver Register
(NDR) to release information about your driving record to FAA.
Information on the NDR record will contain pointers to states that keep
a driving history on you. FAA will get these records to determine if you
have a reportable alcohol-related MVA.

State laws will suspend the DL, thus no DL, no sport pilot
operation. The FAA can compare their database with the
state reports on DUI.
