How do I find out if my license is suspended?
Call the DMV

The Law in California see: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=VEH§ionNum=40509.5.
You live Out of State or Out of Town
If your traffic ticket is out of Los Angeles county and you do not live in Los Angeles, then call us immediately because we can help you clear up your suspended license without you having to come back to Los Angeles.
If you live out of state and you got a ticket in Los Angeles California and did not take care of it, the California DMV will most likely contact your state's DMV, and then your state's DMV won't let you renew or get a license until this California ticket is cleared up.
If you cannot get an out of state license or your DMV won't let you renew your license until your Los Angeles County ticket is cleared up, call us if you are in this situation.
