Raleigh, Wake County Suspended License Attorney

Although many people consider the act of driving a car to be a right, in the eyes of the law, it is a privilege that drivers can only maintain by following traffic and criminal laws. When traffic laws are violated, criminal courts and the Department of Motor Vehicles will take action. Depending on the crime, a person’s driver’s license may be suspended, making it illegal for that individual to operate any type of motor vehicle.

Reasons that a person’s driver’s license may be suspended include (but aren’t limited to):

• Accruing 12 or more points on a driving record within a 3-year period (due to the accumulation of moving violations)
• Committing vehicular manslaughter
• Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI or DWI)
• Driving without car insurance
• Physical or mental impairment that precludes the ability to safely operate a motor vehicle
• Other driving-related offenses, such as involvement in a fatal car accident, racing cars on a highway or abandoning a car on a highway
• Certain non-driving offenses, such as failing to pay child support (or other court-ordered fines), securing a license or learner’s permit under false pretenses or failing to appear in court when summoned

If your license has been suspended, it is crucial that you do not drive, as it could result in more serious penalties and fines. An important thing to note is your license may be considered suspended immediately, even if the actual suspension time hasn’t officially begun.
