License Suspensions and Revocations

Losing Your Driving Privileges

Driving is a privilege, not a right! If you break the rules, your license can be suspended (temporarily taken away) or revoked (canceled).

Common Reasons

  • Too many traffic tickets or points on your record
  • Driving under the influence (DUI)
  • Not paying traffic fines
  • Failing to appear in court

How to Get Reinstated

  • Serve the suspension period
  • Complete any required courses, like defensive driving
  • Pay reinstatement fees

Keeping Your License

Drive safely, follow the rules, and keep your record clean!

Examples

  • License suspended for getting multiple speeding tickets.

  • Reinstating a license after completing a DUI program.

In a Nutshell

Breaking driving laws can result in losing your license, either temporarily or permanently.
