You can only possess a licence in the state which you are a resident of. First off. Georgia, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Michigan, Tennessee, and Nevada aren't part of the Driver Licence Compact, and it might be possible to get a licence in those states if you first establish residence in those states. However, the odds of this are a bit unlikely - even though they are not members, they still share DMV information with other states.. And even if you did get a licence in that state, it would only be valid within the state of issue - the moment you cross a state line, it's treated as if you were driving on a suspended licence.

Legally, no. The states of Oregon and Washington communicate closely with each other regarding traffic violations and license status. If you are pulled over in Washington, you may be cited for driving with a suspended license. Take care of the problem in Oregon, and don't forget to pay the 75 dollar fee Oregon requires to remove an infraction from its books. There does not seem to be an expiration time on how long Oregon can hold a record requiring the removal, my neighbor has let hers go for nearly 20 years.

No, if your license is suspended in one state you are suspended in all states. All state DMV's share their information with one another and honor each other's court decisions.

No. If you're suspended it makes no difference WHAT state you hold a license in.

Can I get a driver's license in Maine if I am suspended in Oregon?

Demonstrate to ME's DMV that you have satisfied NY's terms of the suspension.You should write NY DMV and ask them to provide a letter stating that you are no longer subject to the suspension and that you are eligible for license reinstatement.

What year was ny able to suspend another states driver license?

The answer depends on the agreement with the second state. Many do not suspend your license for an out of state violation, you would simply not be able to drive in the state that suspended you (in this case New York). NY cannot prevent you from driving in Oregon if you have an Oregon license, they can only refuse to allow you to drive in NY regardless of the state that issues your license. Oregon MAY choose to suspend your Oregon license completely, but that decision is made in Oregon.

Will not paying a speeding ticket in another state result in your license being suspended in your home state?

In most cases, yes. Most states are members of the Interstate Drivers License Compact, where each state where a non-resident is cited or arrested agrees to notify the violator's home state of the violation. If the violation would suspend a drivers license in the state where it occurs, the violator's home state is supposed to suspend the license, as well. The only states that do not subscribe to the Interstate Drivers License Compact are Alaska, California, Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, Tennessee and Wisconsin.

If your driving privileges are suspended in Oregon but have a valid Georgia license can you drive in any other state but Oregon?

When you are suspended in Oregon, your name(s) go into a National Database called PDPS (Problem Driver Pointer System). If you were to try and get your license in another state, they (the states' DMV office) will cross check your name and verify that you have no other suspensions before issuing you another driver license. In order to reinstate your driving privileges, you need to contact the Oregon DMV, find out why you were suspended (assuming you don't already know), pay your fines at the court in order to vacate your docket, and then pay a $75.00 re-instatement fee to the Oregon DMV. Pretty much, you are suspended in all states.


The car I bought in Oregon is from Washington And has no license plates I live in Oregon How much will I have to pay Washington DMV to change the plates and registration to Oregon?

You don't have to pay the Washington DMV anything. All charges are assessed to the Oregon DMV. You just bring the Washington title to the Oregon office, pay your fees, and that's it.
