If you lose you license in one state, would it be possible to get it in another state?

Question

If you lose you license in one state, would it be possible to get it in another state?

Answer 1

No, the DMV is nationawide and connected together. They check.

Answer 2

Even if you do?  Your "privilege to drive" in THAT state is SUSPENDED.  Meaning that if you enter that state without your "stuff" being straight? - you'll be ticketed for driving without a valid license - and that's NASTY...... I.E.; you live in NY and your license is suspended for whatever reason.  You go to Florida and get a valid license and drive back up to NY - the minute you're pulled over in NY, you're screwed - because your privilege to drive within the state is suspended!

Answer 3

No, they share information.

Answer 4

No, you can't. When the other state pulls up your info, they'll find that you've lost your license in another state & won't issue you a license. You lost your license for a reason now you must pay the consequences & wait out the time until you can get a lisence.

Answer 5

You might find a way around it, but most states have access to records from other states.

If you did, you would have to have broken a law and committed perjury of an official record. Which would result not only in the loss of the second DL, with the addition of jail time for the perjury crime.

Answer 6

It used to be possible. But some law that was passed a couple of years ago prevents this now because of drunk and reckless drivers going to other states. Now their is a federal database.

  By the way, one big problem is if you have an unpaid parking ticket, or even a paid one, you could loose your license without even knowing. Always keep receipts from those idiots at the DMV because they are too stupid to use common sense.

Answer 7

It depends on how you lost it, if it somehow fell behind the fridge kind of lost.  Then yes.  If you had some kind of illegal kind of activity that caused a judge to order it removed and your license suspended, then no.
