Driving on a Suspended or Revoked License

In Virginia, many people are charged with driving on a  suspended or revoked license. An individual may have his license suspended for failure to pay fines or costs. A person could have his license revoked for DUI.  The trick is to resolve the matter quickly.

If charged with a suspended license charge, pay off your fines and costs immediately.  Then, get your license reinstated.  Although not a defense, having your license in court will sometimes lead to the charge being reduced.

If charged with a revoked license for DUI, you are in more serious trouble.  when you come to see Anthony Montagna, III, he will ask, “Why was your license suspended?”   Did you drive your vehicle outside of your restrictions?  Did you have the interlock device on your vehicle?  Did you know your license was revoked?
