CA Drivers License Suspended, not DUI?

I was a week late in paying my insurance and I get suspended for a year, even though I renewed the insurance and showed it to the judge. Is that excessive. Life just got hectic and I overlooked it. It happens.

yes it's a bit excessive even after you have renewed it.
6 mos. should have been enough.
well, at least you learned your lesson.. |

I'd get a lawyer involved with this. Especially if you don't have a history of paying late. They might be able to get your license unsuspended or at least give you permission to drive to work or school. |

That's how it works...judges don't care and they aren't going to bend the rules or go easy on you...you're just another case. It is excessive, esp since you showed proof or renewal. You might be able to fight it, but would be extremely expensive. It sux tho. |

That's way out of line! Unless, this was like your 10th time getting "Jacked" about driving without insurance.. I'd bypass the local court and write directly to the DMV in Sacramento and tell them what's going on to you in your county.. I'm in Shasta County; and they're strict up here; but what your talking about is not just tough; it's illegal on THIER part. The courts can't make up laws as they go along. They have to follow the Traffic Code Laws just like everyone else; and getting caught driving without insurance doesn't carry a years suspension.. It's a fine; and another trip to court to Prove you've since got the insurance; where, upon receipt, your license should be UN-suspended.
Maybe I was wrong. Looks like they've changed the laws recently and made them stricter.. Check this link and see! |

Check with your local independent insurance agent. He/she should be able to help you with this.
It could be as simple as having to file an SR-22 - which is no big deal!
If it gets more complicated than that, you might have to get legal counsel - but I doubt it.
Good luck and I hope this helps! |

WELL AT LEAST YOU WERE NOT IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CALIFORNIA LAW STATES THAT IF YOU ARE UNINSURED AND IN AN ACCIDENT YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR LICENSE FOR FOUR FULL YEARS. |

You get suspected license in CA if you don't report an accident, even if the other party was PAID by your insurance company. |

I'm guessing you got pulled over while you didn't have coverage on your car. It's the law. Find a good lawyer, this is not something you're going to be able to fix on your own. |
