Driving Without a License in Maryland

Silver Spring Traffic Ticket Lawyer

There are many cases of people operating motor vehicles without a license. Some of these may be caused by negligence, such as when drivers forget their licenses. If you are found to be driving without your driver's license, then you could be arrested and face serious penalties for conviction of this charge.

Without skilled legal assistance on your side, you could face the full extent of the penalties that the law provides; however, a legal representative on your side can help to fight the charges and work to have the penalties reduced.

Penalties for Driving Without a License

If you are convicted of a first-time offense of driving without a license in Maryland, then you will face penalties of up to 60 days in jail and fines up to $500. For a second or subsequent offense, you could face the same fine as well as up to a year in jail. In addition, driving without a license will accumulate five points against your record.

If you accumulate 12 or more points within a two-year period, then you will have your license revoked and you will be forced to reapply for a driver's license.
