Driving on a Suspended License in Michigan

Michigan Traffic Defense Attorney

Driving on a suspended license is a misdemeanor traffic violation in Michigan. If convicted, you may face up to 93 days in jail and a fine of up to $500 – for a first offense. A second conviction may result in up to 1 year imprisonment as well as up to $1,000 in fines. If you are accused of involvement in an auto accident at the time of driving on suspended or revoked license, you may even face felony charges.

A driver's license may be revoked or suspended for any of a number of serious traffic violations, including OWI/DUI, hit and run or reckless driving. If you accumulate enough points on your driving record from traffic offenses or tickets of any kind, you may also face license suspension. At times, a driver may have a suspended license and may not even know it. After being pulled over for another traffic violation, the officer may run your license through the system and see that it has been suspended. In this way, a simple traffic stop may turn into an arrest and potential jail time.
