Its b/c you was 17 when you got the ticket the the suspension. and as soon as you turn 18 it is all droped off your record. Did you have to take the driving test again b/c what they did for me was, i got them susp. when i was 17 and when i turned 18 they just make it look like you never had a license other then a temp and then i just had to pay the 19.5 for the temp packet and take the test over again.
