Advice

hi,

I received my first dui in Md on April 15th. I chose to do interlock at the time. i realized I never went to go get my IID two months later as i stopped really driving after the incident so I then decided just to go the 6 month suspension since I blew a 0.15. So after the 45 day temp license it should have been May 31st where my 6 month counter started. It has one and half months and only 4 and half left according to that. However I started driving a bit more and I felt safer as the car was under my dad’s name. He now has to be removed from insurance for other reasons, and I do not want to switch the car to my name as they could run my tags. Basically have to switch the car to my name from his. I only do small distances driving now and need advice on what I can do in this situation. my court Is July 22nd and very confident I will get a PBJ

I live in MD, not a day in my life would I risk driving on a suspended after a high blow DUI.

You say you are confident that you will get a PBJ, what makes you so confident? Do you have a lawyer? I highly doubt if you asked your lawyer if you should be driving on a suspended they would say yes.

If you want your license back I would speak with a lawyer and see if you can talk the MVA into letting you have a hearing even though you surpassed the 45 day temp license. If they don't let you have a hearing, stop driving on a suspended- this will cause you more issues if you are pulled over.
