A few days ago, I got arrested due to DUI. The officer took my driver's license. I didn't have GA driver's license, I had Illinois driver's license.
My attoney advised me to try to get a dupulicated licese from IL, and get a GA's driver's license prior to court date and administrative hearing date. By having GA's driver's license, I will get a hardship driver's license if I convicted DUI.
I found that I still possessed FL driver's license. I guess when I got a new driver's license in California, they didn't take it from me.(were they supposed to take it from me?, I don't remember how I still kept that. But this is not I did intentionally.)
So, today I went to DMV office in Atlanta with my valid FL driver's license and applied for a GA driver's license and I received it. Is it llegal?? my FL driver's license had expiration date on 2007.
NOW I AM VERY AFRAID, after reading this article
Possession of a Fake ID
Possession of a fake ID is a Class B misdemeanor!?All Class B misdemeanors have a possible punishment of six months in jail and a $2,000.00 fine.?Fake ID is on the same penalty level as a first DWI.?Furthermore, the suspect would be arrested and need to bond out of jail. This law also applies to anyone who possesses more than one driver’s license. Furthermore, if a person under 21 years of age is found by the police to be in possession of alcohol, the police will suspect that s/he has a fake ID
A driver's license can be suspended for one year for fake ID and DWI.?Driving with a Suspended DL is a Class B misdemeanor with further loss of driver’s license.?Penalties and suspension periods increase on subsequent arrests.
Is it my case? Am I going to be punished for a class B misdemeanor???
If so, what should I do?Can I go back to DMV and tell them that I didn't know about it and void it?
I am very scared. Please help me out.
Any of your sincere advise will be highly appreciated.
