If you’ve had your driver’s license suspended, you know just what a hassle it can be to take care of daily obligations like getting to and from work, carting the kids to school and soccer practice, and getting simple chores like grocery shopping done. The fact of the matter is that in many situations, the experienced Columbia driver’s license issue lawyers at the Law Offices of Todd K. Mohink, PA can effectively secure useful interventions for people just like you. A call to our office can be the first step in simplifying your life. On the other hand, if you continue to drive on a suspended license and get caught, the consequences can be head spinning. That’s why you should call our Columbia office at 410-766-0113 the minute you know that your license has been suspended.
If your license is suspended and you ignore the problem, it will definitely catch up to you one way or another. If convicted, your license may be revoked altogether, and you could face fines of $500 and two months of jail time (Maryland article TA§ 16-303). And that’s just for a first offense. If it happens a second time, the fine doubles and jail time increases to one year. Those sanctions double again if there’s a third offense.
The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) sends out a notice of suspension requiring you to surrender your license by a particular date. Unfortunately, some people don’t pay attention to their mail, and quite often drivers don’t even realize there’s a problem until they are pulled over for an unrelated issue and are informed of their status from the officer right there on the roadside.
There are a number of circumstances under which individuals lose their driving privilege in Maryland. The most common issues related to license suspension and/or revocation are:
