    Defenses to Driving While License Suspended, Canceled or Revoked in Florida<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The crime of driving while license suspended or revoked is often straightforward. You either were driving or you weren’t driving. Also, your license was either suspended or it wasn’t suspended. However, proving that you had ‘knowledge’ of your license’s suspension, revocation, or cancelation might be more difficult. In some cases the government for one reason or another may have insufficient evidence that you had ‘knowledge’ that your driver’s license was suspended.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Typically, the crime of driving while license suspended is minor. Further, the State of Florida has an interest in people having valid driver’s licenses. Therefore, it may help your case if you are able to get your driver’s license while the case is pending in court. Once you have your driver’s license the government might be inclined to reduce your criminal traffic charge to the lesser criminal charge of No Valid Driver’s License or possibly the non-criminal charge of failure to exhibit. While you don’t have a right to a reduction here, obtaining a valid driver’s license may demonstrate to the prosecutor that you learned from your mistake and deserve leniency.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
