California Driving on a Revoked or Suspended License Charges and Penalties

What constitutes Driving on a Revoked or Suspended License?

In California, no person shall drive a motor vehicle at any time when that person’s driving privilege is suspended or revoked, if the person has knowledge of the suspension or revocation.  Knowledge shall be conclusively presumed if mailed notice has been given by the department.

If you are in control of a vehicle when your license has been suspended or revoked, you could face serious fines and even jail time.

What is the Punishment?

If it is your first conviction, the punishment for driving on a revoked or suspended license is imprisonment ranging from 5 days to 6 months, a fine of between $300.00 or $1,000.00, or both.

If there has been a prior conviction for driving on a revoked or suspended license within the last five years, the punishment is imprisonment for 10 days to 1 year, a fine of between $500.00 or more than $2,000.00, or both.

If probation is granted, a condition of the probation could be imprisonment for at least 10 days.

Additionally, it is possible that a license can be revoked or suspended for a longer amount of time, depending on the person’s driving record.

As the punishment can range so greatly, it is important to have knowledgeable legal counsel who can advocate for the lowest sentence possible for you.

Even as a Defendant, you still have Rights! Make sure yours were not violated!

Even as an individual facing criminal charges, you have rights, and it is important to know those rights and make sure that they were not violated in any way when you were arrested or charged.  Without extensive knowledge of your rights when it comes to police searches, Miranda rights, and your rights when it comes to arrest, it is extremely difficult to get a dismissal or reduction.  Do not try to fight these charges on your own—Weber Law is ready to help you today.
