Operating a motor vehicle while a license is under suspension is a first degree misdemeanor. If convicted, the driver is subject to a fine of up to $1,000 or six months in jail, or both. The violator may also be sentenced to an additional drivers license suspension.

Penalties include fines, incarceration, vehicle immobilization or forfeiture, impounding of license plates, and suspension time. Some DUS offenses require mandatory jail, other mandate restricted plates for driving privileges.

 

Restricted driving privileges may or may not be granted depending on the offense, and the judge assigned to your case.
