Suspension from Excessive Points/ Moving Violations
Kansas will suspend you if you are ticketed and convicted for driving without liability insurance, as well as for having too many moving violations or points on your record. There are several requirements you will have to comply with to maintain your driving privileges, including:
-You will have to pay a $100 reinstatement fee and maintain an SR-22 filing with the Driver Control Bureau for 12 consecutive months (KSA 40-3118)
-You will be forced to pay a fine of not less $300 than but not more than $1000 for your first offense. For following offenses that occur within 3 years of the previous offense, you will pay not less than $800 but not more than $2500. (KSA-40-3104)
-This conviction is one of the three necessary convictions used by the Driver Control Bureau to revoke your license under the Kansas "Habitual Driving Statute" for a 3 year period.
Kansas Habitual Violator Law
Kansas labels you a habitual violator is you are convicted of or plead guilty to 3 or more of the following within a 5 year period:
-DUI/DWI (even diversions)
-Driving while suspended
-Reckless driving
-Failing to stop at the scene of an accident
-No proof of insurance
-Vehicular homicide
If you are termed a "habitual violator" you will face a 3 year license revocation with no hardship license.

Driving while suspended or revoked?
If you are charged with driving on a suspended or revoked license, or face suspension because of too many moving violations or points, Martin & Wallentine will help you deal with the potential consequences.
In Kansas, the consequences can be swift and sever for driving while suspended (DWS) or revoked (DWR). They include:
- A minimum jail time of 5 consecutive days, and your license can be suspended for an additional 90 days or more. Kansas does not have a hardship or limited drivers license available to Kansas drivers.
These, and other charges, can be reduced by an attorney who works to have these offenses amended to a lesser charge. In addition Martin & Wallentine will work to have your fees and fines are kept as low as possible.
Let a skilled, experienced defense attorney fight for your rights! Jerry Wallentine will investigate your driving record and the reason for suspension, then work to have the ticket amended to a lesser charge so new points or suspensions will not accrue on your record.
