Greensboro Drivers License Suspension Attorneys
In North Carolina, you get points added to your driving record if you receive a conviction for certain motor vehicle violations. Our state has a strict points system, and you could have your license suspended if you accumulate twelve points within a three-year period. Once you receive reinstatement of your drivers license, accumulating eight points in the next three-year period results in another suspension. Your first suspension could last up to 60 days, the second up to six months, and a third suspension could last up to twelve months.
If your license is suspended or if you are caught driving on a suspended license, you could face severe penalties. It is essential to hire a knowledgeable drivers license suspension lawyer in Greensboro to help you negotiate your way through the legal process. At The Clifford Division, we know how to fight to retain or reinstate your driving privileges.
A Greensboro license suspension lawyer can help reinstate your drivers license
Drivers license reinstatement is typically the first priority for any North Carolina driver whose license is suspended. However, there is no formula reinstatement process to follow, since every suspension comes with different fines and penalties. For example, you will receive a 30-day suspension following an arrest for driving while intoxicated (DWI). You may be eligible for a limited driving privilege after 10 days.
It is important to keep in mind that some North Carolina violations, such as a conviction for possession of a fake ID, specifically prohibit drivers license reinstatement or limit driving privileges before the end of a mandatory suspension period. Moreover, there is a mandatory twelve-month additional suspension for driving while your license is suspended or revoked. Most violations, however, will allow for continued driving under certain restrictions after a ten-day suspension period.
If you believe your suspension penalty is unreasonable, you should consider seeking legal advice from a Greensboro traffic ticket attorney.
