“California vehicle code 12500 makes it illegal, and a misdemeanor, to drive without a valid license on any highway in California. A person cited for driving without a valid license in CA may be punished by probation, time in county jail, and fines of up to $1000 plus surcharges.”
@Sunsetseast yes, I had to go to court. My court date was about one month from the time I got the ticket and I had to option to pay it all then or to pay it out in three payments starting a month later than the court date. The amount for the fine was including the court cost.
In my jurisdiction, a traffic violation has to be observed by the officer, before a traffic stop can be made. how did the officer know your dl was expired?
What are the circumstances of your expired driver license? why are they expired?
