Felonies That Could Get Your License Suspended

Conviction of a serious traffic violation or multiple traffic violations can result in the suspension or revocation of your driver license or privilege to drive.  It is illegal to drive a motor vehicle when your driver license or driving privilege is suspended or revoked.  If your license or driving privilege is suspended or revoked, DMV will send a notice (called an “order”) to the address we have on file.  Be sure to follow the instructions on the order. A suspension means your license or driving privilege will be taken away for a period of time before it is returned.  You may be required to pay a suspension termination fee.  The suspension period can be definite (which has a beginning and end date) or indefinite, which does not end until you take a required action.  Note that every state has certain laws regarding traffic violation, driving points and license’s suspension.  And having license suspended will affect car insurance rates.  Get free quotes on car insurance and compare results.
