Driving with a Suspended License
Driving with a suspended license in California can have significant consequences, impacting your ability to drive and leading to penalties depending on the reason for the suspension.
While the charge may not seem severe, penalties can be substantial, especially if your license was suspended due to a prior conviction or arrest for driving under the influence (DUI). In such cases, a subsequent charge for driving with a suspended license carries a mandatory 10-day sentence, adds two points to your driving record, and requires the installation of an ignition interlock device (IID) in your vehicles. However, if your license is reinstated, I can negotiate with the prosecutor for a reduced sentence and spare you the inconvenience and embarrassment of appearing in court.
