Other Types of Suspensions

There are various other ways that one can have their license suspended.

Conviction under Florida Statute 893

Many years ago the Florida Legislature mandated the DHSMV shall suspend your license upon any conviction for a drug related possession charge under this statute. Even if you were not driving at the time of the offense, the State of Florida will suspend your license upon a court conviction. Below is a sample of other reasons that your driver's license may be suspended by the court or the DHSMV. Some suspensions just require a reinstatement fee to reinstate your license. Other suspensions, like a violation of Florida Statute Chapter 893, require you to complete a DUI school before your license will be re-instated. Even though the crime involves drug(s) the DHSMV will require completion of DUI school in order to reinstate your license.

Here is a list of several charges, and the potential time for each charge:
