Traffic offenses, to many drivers, may seem like a petty nuisance. Of course, fines can be expensive, insurance rates may increase, and the time spent at court may be annoying, but otherwise, tickets do not present much of a problem. What many fail to consider, however, is that traffic violations can add up, ultimately resulting in the suspension or complete revocation of your driver’s license. Continue to drive while your license is suspended or revoked, and you may be facing criminal charges instead of traffic tickets. At the Davi Law Group, we understand the severity of driving with a suspended license and we are prepared to help you protect your rights.

The prosecution and penalties associated with driving with a suspended or revoked license typically depend on circumstances surrounding the initial suspension. A first offense, however, is generally prosecuted as a Class A misdemeanor. In most cases, a conviction will result in an extension of the suspension or revocation. A convicted driver may also face a term in prison, fines, and a period of probation, especially if the original suspension or revocation was related to DUI.
