DRIVING ON A REVOKED LICENSE

In Tennessee, driving on a revoked or suspended license is a criminal offense.  Police across the state and the country, are using passive license plate scanning technology to monitor and locate anyone with a suspended license. So your chances of being caught are high. It’s a risk you don’t want to take.

If you are stopped for any reason, and found to be driving on a suspended or revoked license, you could be arrested and face criminal charges. 

If that happens to you, James R. Owen and his team can help. We understand what it takes for you to avoid serious penalties, avoid a permanent criminal conviction and avoid further suspension of your license.
