my licence is revoked for 10 years. can i get it in a different state from the one that its revoked in?

Question

ok. so my licence was first revoked when i was about 15 years old. the reason being that i was caught drinking under the age. this happend numerous times after that for alcohal and marijuana charges.then i was caught driving on a revoked licence a few times too. each charge added a year onto my revoked licence which equals up to ten years.
im twenty years old i have never had my licence and i have never had a dui (never drove drunk period). since my last charge i have completed a 3 month drug/alcohal program, and i have reamained clean and sober for about 10 months now. i know i am the one that lost my privelledge of driving, but i think its rediculous to revoke my licence for ten years over these minor offences that i commited as a young adult. i just cant wait untill im thirty to be able to drive. i need better transportation to work and back! anyways thats my sob story, but i want to know if it is possible for me to move to a different state (eather CA. or OR) and get my licence?

Answer 1

You could move to North Korea maybe, Estonia, China, someplace like that!
The revocation has full effect in every state, every Canadian province, Great Britain, Belgium, South Korea, Germany, and Switzerland. There may be a few more countries now.

Answer 2

When your license is suspended or revoked in one state, you are not eligible in any state. All states share driver info, if your revoked for ten years, then that's it. Since the revokation is alcohol related(you were a minor drinking)you may be able to get a hardship provision, allowing you to drive to and from work only. I would think if you had legal counsel, this option would have be requested. It's very possible, it will be denied, since you had several opportunities to clear the situation previously. Other than that, I see no options available, other than public transportation. If you are caught driving again, jail time will certainly be in your future.

Answer 3

before 9-11 you could go out west or down south to get a different state licence but since 9-11 and home land security states are all hooked up to one data base now and its impossible it will be flaged

Answer 4

Depending on the exact state, when you move your driving record carries over from the previous state and move states honor the duration of penalty. Last time I moved from one state to a next my previous states' infractions carried over for a period of 7 years.

Answer 5

Most states have an interstate compact that would not allow you to get you license from them until you are cleared in your home state. I would ask the court about getting a hardship license for driving to work and back.

Answer 6

Nope. That puppy follows you anywhere in the US.

You can try applying for a provisional that will let you drive to work; no guarantee there.

No sympathy. Just lucky the only thing lost was driving privelege.

Answer 7

No, you can't get away with that anymore as all the DMV's share information online. With the fact fact that you got caught numerous times are you really responsible enough to be driving?

Answer 8

Sounds like the decisions of a young adult realy screwed things up. Oh well, too bad. There's always Mexico...LOL

Answer 9

Guess what? You're s@@@@@d!
With computerized enchange of information, you might luck out of you move to Venezuela, but as far as moving anywhere else in the US, forget it.
You might consider Philadelpha, Boston orNew York City. They have excellent subway systems.

Answer 10

No you can't. I guess you better buy a bicycle. First thing that is done at the DMV is put your name and social security number into the system.
