Drug Crimes, Substance Abuse can i get my license back?

[steveo098]

when i was 15 i got an owi for marijuana on a gator and i only had a school permit. i wasn't charged by the police but i got a deferred judgement and didn't have to go to court but i was still charged by the DOT and my driving privilages were revoked untill i turn 18. when i turned 18 i paid all my fines, got sr-22 insurance, and took the owi class and the state told me my license was suspended for another 2 years for driving on a suspended license when i was 16. i'll be 19 in january and i need to get it back because i want to go to college for automotive technicians, but i couldn't go this year. is there any way i can get it back? and can they keep a license suspended after you turn 18?

Yes, the suspensions are legal.
Had you not driven without a license at 16, you'd have one now.
But, you put yourself in the penalty box.
A lawyer might be able to help you, but it would cost you a lot of money.

You could appeal to the DOT by writing a letter and asking for a limited use license for work or your educational program.

Or, just wait a few more months.
Don't drive in the interim, and time will pass.
