Re: Suspension of Driver License

Driving without insurance is a basis for suspending your license. Nothing more is needed. Anything you write down in a report can be used against you whether or not it is under penalty of perjury; why would you say something negative about yourself unless it were true. A police report can be used for administrative hearings and does not have to be signed under penalty of perjury. The amount of a settlement does not establish how much the damage was because there are many reasons why the injured party may have taken less than the actual damage to their vehicle.

Assuming all those negative things happened to you, why would you expect the DMV not to take away your license?
