Kevin R. Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I was just curious if anyone has gone through this before. I'm a little confused on the steps to get my license reinstated. I have privelages right now, but it says I will need to pay $30 and purchase a temporary permit packet. Does this mean that I have to drive with an adult? I don't see how they can give me my temps again when I have been allowed to drive legally throughout my suspension to work and school. It just doesn't make sense. I am also 18 now. Any information on the process? Just looking on what to expect because the BMV is not a stress-free place to handle unwanted situations. And I know I brought it upon myself, cant do anything now.

Crash1647545504 Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I got two speeding tickets before I was 18. My second one was like 69 in a 65, so it was dropped to a non moving violation, and I never lost my L's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHIEF Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I lost mine before I was 18. I can't remember at all what I had to do. I think I called the BMV up and asked what to do. Hopefully they won't screw you around with your paperwork like they did mine. It's suppose to be you lose your license for 90 days, my paperwork (which they dicked me on) was flipped around for awhile and it really took 6 months to get my license back. Went to some BMV an hour away (was trying to cut the paper trail down to get my L back sooner) and waited 2 hours, just for them to tell me that my papers got sent to a different BMV. Good luck.

Kevin R. Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Turns out they had no record of my suspension at the BMV, which is something I assumed happened becaused they sent my "Juvenile Driver Improvement" program certificate back in the mail to me, which they were supposed to keep. I told the lady it was suspended and she said they had no record, so that all I needed to do was go get a duplicate license next door. Came out to $19.50 and I'm a registered driver again. Think that kind of irks me is that I could have gone and gotten my license back months ago, but I served the full suspension, which is probably a good thing though if something ever goes wrong with this situation. Oh well, I'm happy. Saved a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Karacho1647545492 Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 could it have been that you got a court suspension, not a BMW suspension? Thats what I did, and all you have to do is stop by the juvenile court on the last day and pick up your license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin R. Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Really? I don't think so because they gave me all sorts of papers that said I need to go to the BMV. Also, I had to take a Juvenile Driving Course which I received a certificate for, which they said the BMV would hold until I went to reinstate my license. Well, the BMV sent that back to me about 4 weeks into my suspension saying they did not know about any suspension. I think somewhere along the way information was no transfered or something.

yellowsnake Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 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.
