License Suspensions
In PA, among other reasons, your license may be suspended for:
- Unpaid child support
- Unpaid parking tickets
- DUI
- Hit and run, Racing, Excessive Points, Breath test refusal
- Drug possession
- Underage drinking
If you are convicted of driving while your license is under suspension, you could be sentenced to up to 90 days in jail and will have to pay a fine of at least $100. Driving while under suspension for a DUI related offense has even greater consequences. In addition to having fines in excess of $100, your suspension will likely be extended or your license revoked entirely. This may in turn affect your ability to secure a job or share custody of your children, if applicable. It may also increase your automobile insurance premiums.
Although driving while your license is under suspension is only a summary offense, the consequences can be extreme.
