is a driver's license suspended in all the states?

Answer 1

Of course it is, just as it gave you permission to drive in all the states, you lose that permission when you lose your license

Answer 2

All states have laws that make it illegal to drive without a license or with a suspended one. So it makes no difference which state you are stopped in if your state suspended your license.
There is no national data base containing your driving license or record. When you are stopped the officer radios your ID or license information to his dispatch center. They, in turn, send a computer query to your state's DMV (Dept. of Motor Vehicle), who will report your license status.
One of the answerer's talked about COMPACT STATES. This is an agreement between a number of states (23 I think) to enforce each other's citations. For instance, I issue a New Yorker a speeding ticket here in Wyoming. He decides not to pay the ticket when he gets back to New York. Wyoming will notify New York that he didn't pay his fine and New York will suspend his driver's license until he does.

Answer 3

Yes and no. You didn't state why your license was suspended.

For example, Pennsylvania has a zero tolerance policy for underage drinking. Maryland's drinking age is also 21, but no zero tolerance. An underage in Maryland will not get your license suspended in PA.

A state may deny you your driving privleges if you move to that state from the one in which your privleges were suspended. If you are driving through a different state with a suspended license and a pulled over, the state you are pulled over is supposed to honor the sentence you received in your home state. You may be placed under arrest for driving with a suspended license. DMV codes are not ordinances, as one relier put it. An ordinance is a municipal law that only applies in that municipality. the Constitution requires all states to give full faith and credit to the other states, and to honor judgements and sentences made in other states.

Answer 4

Yes unfortunately all states belong to a thing called the DLC or drivers license compact. This means that serious things(and even some not so serious things) go on a sort of national drivers license register and you are not able to obtain a license in another state until you remedy your problems in other states. Sorry about that.

Answer 5

Yes, if a license has been suspended in one state, it carries over to all states

Answer 6

No, though if you are caught driving in another state and you have a suspended license it is likely they will drop a ticket on you faster than you can sneeze. Suspension is a ordinance of a state not of the nation.

Answer 7

When your license is suspended that means that the issuing state no longer recognizes your privilege to drive. And that is put down in that states DMV database. So if you go to another state and get pulled over and they happen to check your states DMV database your screwed.

Answer 8

Yes. Other States give full faith and credit to the licenses your state creates. But when your state suspends your license, there is nothing to give full faith and credit to.

Answer 9

You can only legally have one license at a time. If it is suspended then it is suspended PERIOD.

It is the License that allows you to drive. so if it is suspended then you cannot drive legally. ANYWHERE.

use a tiny bit of COMMON SENSE and you could have answered your own question.

Answer 10

Yes, I had a suspended DL out of WA and got pulled over in AZ, needless to say I was done driving for the day, week, etc...
