Utah Attorney for Driving On A Suspended or Revoked License

Driver License Offenses

There are a multitude of reasons why one can lose his license.  In the criminal world a conviction for possession of marijuana or other controlled substances can result in a license suspension for six months.  A Utah DUI conviction can result in a 120 day suspension and in some cases up to two years.  Other instances which may result in a license suspension is getting too many points from speeding, reckless driving, and other minor offenses added up over time.

The problem is that in our society one must have a driver’s license. Utah’s public transportation system simply does not have the ability to provide the needs of the typical citizen.  Without a license you will be placed between a rock and a hard place.  You can either try to get around without a car, which is next to impossible, or you can drive to work, school, and the grocery store but run the risk of going to jail for it.
