Let me start by saying that I am not a lawyer and do not play one on television either. Not only that I am staying in a Super 8 and not even a Holiday Inn Express! To answer your question though, If your CDL is suspended in your home state you are done until it is re-instated. I have heard of cases where drivers are suspended in one state and keep driving in others, but this is all from drivers that I have talked to in truck stops. Most states have reciprocity agreements with other states that means if you are suspended in one state you are suspended in all of the other states that have an agreement with that state. In short, I would not try it. Take care of whatever caused the suspension and then you are good in all 48.

What state will issue drivers license to you if move there with a suspended license?

Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Tennessee, and Nevada are the five states which are not members of the Drivers Licence Compact. It might - there are no guarantees - be possible to receive a licence in those states if you have one which is suspended in another state. However, you must first be a resident of that state - only your state of residence can issue you a drivers licence - and, once you receive that licence, you'll be restricted to operating a motor vehicle within that state - if you're caught driving in another state with that licence, it's treated as you driving on a suspended licence. You will also not be able to drive in the state in which your licence was suspended until you've met the requirements to have your driving privilege reinstated in that state - when a state suspends your licence, your driving privilege also gets suspended, meaning you can't drive in that state on any licence.If you have a Commercial Drivers Licence, which is federally regulated, the above does not apply - get that suspended, and nowhere can you get another one issued until it's reinstated.

Where can you go to get a drivers licences if your licence is suspended?

There are a handful of states which will issue a drivers licence if yours is suspended in a another state - I don't remember all of them offhand, but I do believe Indiana is one. HOWEVER, it's not as simple as going there and getting a licence. You must have established residence in that state, and you would be restricted to driving only within that state - your licence would be invalid outside of that state. Even if you were able to simply go to another state and get a licence, you still wouldn't be able to drive in your home state - when a state suspends your licence, it's not just your licence which is suspended, but also your driving privilege in that state, meaning you can't drive in that state with any licence until you get your driving privilege reinstated.

A Commercial drivers licence is the licence to drive any heavy weight vehicle. You do not need a parent in the vehicle with you when you drive on the streets. Although, you do need a parent present when you get your licence, and they have to sign the papers.


Can you get a drivers license in Tennessee Georgia or Florida if your drivers license is revoked in Illinois?

No you cannot. If your license is revoked in one state, you have to have it reinstated before you can obtain a license in another state. Additionally, you can only receive a licence in your state of residence, so, even if your licence wasn't suspended, you would have to move and establish residence in another state before you could get a licence there.
