Driver Pulled Over Without License



SUSPENDED LICENSE, I-77: A man with a suspended license and a warrant who decided to take his sweet time pulling over for police managed to make a bad situation worse as police arrested him at 2:41 a.m. Aug. 26. The arresting officer reportedly saw the man talking on his phone and looking back at him as he ignored the patrol car’s lights and air horn. The officer was trying to pull him over because the car’s temporary tags were not illuminated or clearly visible. As the officer was readying to report that he was in an official pursuit of the car, the driver pulled over. When asked why he didn’t pull over right away, the driver said he didn’t see the officer. When the officer told the driver he’d seen him looking back at him and talking on the phone the driver denied it but then quickly rebutted saying that he didn’t know. When the officer asked for the man’s license, he gave the officer his social security number. The officer then asked if the man had a license to which the man responded, “I don’t know.” The man told the officer that the car belonged to his girlfriend but claimed to be ignorant of most every other piece of information the officer asked for, including whether his license was suspended, if he had any warrants and how long he’d been driving his girlfriend’s car. Each question was met the same response: “I don’t know.” The officer found out that the man had two license suspensions and a warrant for an unpaid speeding violation in Walton Hills on his record.

Rest view, Fla. (CBS TAMPA) – A driver pulled over without a license didn’t hide anything from police.
On Aug. 17, Okaloosa County lawmen arrested a man who apparently had never been issued a Florida driver’s license, yet was still driving a car. His erratic swerving was spotted by a local deputy who pulled his Toyota Tundra over for failure to remain in a single lane. According to the NWF Daily News, the deputy noticed the driver climb from his seat to the back in order to swap the passenger into the SEE MORE

In the first six months they had their driver’s licenses, Danielle Kane, Maddie Richardson and Eden Monsen of Brunswick had to live with certain restrictions. They couldn’t tool around town with a bunch of friends in the car. They couldn’t drive between midnight and 5 a.m. And no cell phone use. “It was definitely a hassle,” Kane, 18, said Wednesday in the parking lot at the Maine Mall, where the three friends were doing some back-to-school shopping. Told that those restrictions for new drivers will be extended from six months to nine months beginning Thursday, all three said they were glad they already have licenses. “I think two or three months is probably long enough,” said Richardson, 17. Maine lawmakers approved legislation this year that requires any new license holder who’s younger than 18 to drive on an intermediate license for nine months. That means no passengers who aren’t family members or at least 20 years old, no driving after midnight and no cell phone calls. Any violation of those restrictions makes the clock on the intermediate license start over. Drivers who got intermediate licenses before Thursday will still have six months of restrictions. Some of the penalties for driving violations are also going up. The minimum fine for texting while driving is now $250, up from $100. That change applies to all drivers, but it’s meant mostly to deter teenagers, many of whom use text messaging as their primary form of communication. Secretary of State Charlie Summers drafted the changes SEE MORE
