One of the penalties associated with a Driving Under the Influence (DUI) conviction includes a license suspension. In all states, and at the federal level, it is illegal to knowingly be driving with a suspended driver's license.

Contact our Ventura traffic offense attorney today if you have more questions about your charges.
Protect Your Driving Privileges in California
While some motorists regard driving as a basic right, the fact is that operating a motor vehicle is a privilege that must be earned and maintained by demonstrating safe and lawful driving. Under certain circumstances, an individual's California driver's license may be suspended or revoked for a specific length of time, depending on the person's driving record or history, and the particular violation(s).
The DMV can suspend your driving privileges for the following reasons:
- Negligent and / or reckless driving
- DUI conviction
- Failure to submit to a breath or chemical test
Driving with a suspended license is considered a misdemeanor offense, which could be penalized in different ways. You could be subject to:
- Heavy fines
- Potential jail time
- Increased insurance premiums
- In some aggravated circumstances, your driver's license could be completely revoked.
