Any state can suspend your license if you were driving on their roads. For instance, my license is an Indiana license. Michigan can't suspend my license because they don't have jurisdiction in Indiana. Michigan can, however, suspend my license if I was driving on Michigan's roads.

Licenses can only be suspended by the state that issued the license.

Add'l Info: Certain states (New York for example) choose not to honor out-of-state court limitations on their residents licenses. HOWEVER - if the driver is suspended or revoked in another state that suspension or revocation still applies to them when in that state.

All drivers in all states are registered with the NDR or otherwise known as National Drivers Registry...all states use this system to identify mainly problem drivers...repeat drunk driving offenders or speeders. They also use this system to find out if you have any unpaid traffic tickets or unpaid child support. This system allows them to suspend your license in any state for any state. In other words a person who drives without insurance in one state and had their license suspended can't go to another state and get a license or permit for that matter....or drunk driving suspensions...or unpaid traffic tickets...etc etc.

If your license suspended in one state can you get it in another?

It is possible with some states, but not with every state. If you have a CDL (Commercial Drivers License) which gets suspended in one state, there is no state or territory of the US in which you'll be able to get licensed in while your license is suspended. Also note that the state which suspends your license also suspends your driving privileges in that state, so, if you did obtain a license from out of state, and were pulled over in the state where your license was suspended, it would still be treated as if you were driving on a suspended license.

No. Legally you can only possess ONE valid operators license and it must be issued by the state in which you have legal residence. ALL states share and honor each others's Motor Vehicle laws.

For the most part, no. A suspended license means that you technically still have a license. And you are not allowed to have more than one license at a time. And a state will not issue you a license if you hold one in another state.
