Your license to drive is important. Not only for convenience, but as a means to make
a living and support your family. One recent study found that- - Having a driver's license was more important for finding steady work than a high school diploma.
- Many
teens are unlikely to be employed full time as adults due to non-driving suspensions
- Minorities are most likely to
have driver's license problems related to fine collections.
- Those who continue to drive to work with suspended licenses
often are stopped for minor vehicle or traffic infractions only to be cited for driving under suspension or revocation, which
is a class 1 Misdemeanor and is punishable by 4 months Jail
- Lack of transportation to jobs is the most serious barrier
to employment.
- Job seekers without a driver's license and without a high school diploma have little hope of full-time
employment and too often resort to crime. Ex-prisoners are the least likely to find sustained employment because of persistent
legal problems, low education levels, high recidivism rates and driver's license suspension and revocation problems.
- Three-fourths
of job openings are located in the suburbs and are not easily accessed by public transportation.
Driving is considered a privilege
by the state, not a right. While this may have been true when the streets were filled with horses and carts, and only
the wealthy had cars, it is integrally related to life today. If your license to drive has been revoked, call our office.
In most cases, we will review your record free of charge, in order to determine what can be done to get you driving again.
