| 6. If my license is suspended, how will
I get back and forth to work?
"Occupational Licenses" are available under
many different circumstances. The judge must find that an "essential
need" exists, such as school and job commuting. The license is restricted
as to routes, areas, and certain times.
It can be granted only after an appropriate lawsuit is
filed to obtain the license. A qualified attorney can help you with the
process. Court costs vary, but $120-$200 are common. DPS requires another
$10. An SR-22 will also be necessary; an SR-22 is a document sent to DPS to ensure that
you are continuously insured as required by law. Your insurance and attorney
are additional costs.
Some people are ineligible to receive an occupational
license.
