What Happens If You Drive With a Suspended License?

Driving with a suspended license in Ontario is a serious offense that can lead to hefty fines, additional suspension periods, and even possible jail time.

Many drivers find themselves in this situation due to unpaid fines, too many demerit points, or criminal driving offenses.

If caught driving while suspended, you may face fines ranging from $1,000 to $5,000 for a first offense and even higher for subsequent violations.

However, legal defenses do exist. If you were unaware of your suspension due to administrative errors or if you have already taken corrective action, you may have a strong case for reducing penalties.

Seeking the help of an experienced traffic lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and minimize the impact on your driving privileges.
