what happens if a person is caught driving without a license? will it matter if he is on parole?

It's an offense involving a fine and further suspension to drive unlicensed; and it may mean your insurance policy is void so you get that as an offense too.
Depending what the license was suspended for, it may be possible to get a license in another jurisdiction -- but that won't be valid for driving in the country or state of the suspension.

LOL - the answers people come up with> Driving w/o a license is a misdemeanor. A person stopped / pulled over for a traffic violation who does not have a drivers license is usually cited for that offense. The car could be impounded, if there is no licensed driver present.
On parole: most probation & parole releases require the person to have no violations of law. Some releases exclude traffic violations, some dont. So it might matter & it might not.

You're on a parole for what?. The criminal code and the road code are two totally different things. If it's a parole at the criminal code, it won't change anything. Well, in Canada it won't.
I don't know your laws where you're from but I'm guessing it's pretty much the same: your car get seized and you get a very expensive ticket.

can be a felony in most states, up to the PO if they want to revoke the probation or not. If it was a strict guideline under their probation then they go back to jail. If it wasn't for the fact that they was on probation the officer would probably give them a ticket and tow the car or allow someone else to drive it all deals with a persons attutide towards the officer...yes attutide is everything :)

It depends on the jurisdiction - at a minimum, you'll get a ticket and have the car impounded.
If you're on parole, then you could be revoked, because you are supposed to obey all laws when on parole.

From personal observation to what happened to a relative of mine -- if the original license was suspeneded, then it is totally revoked and they will have to reapply when they become eligible. They go straight to jail. If they are in a wreck using your car, insurance does not cover -- you are just as guilty of whatever crime they commit, i.e. manslaughter; property damage including traffic signs, etc.

it is not a felony!! its a gross misdemeanor and if on parole he's probably going to go back to jail, but should only be for maybe 30 days.
