    Default Suspended Over an Old Out-of-State Traffic Violation

    My question involves traffic court in the State of: Oregon

    I went to renew my license in Ohio. They said I had a hold from Oregon on my renewal. I called Oregon and they said I had never paid a ticket from 1996. I vaguely remember the ticket. At the time, I had a California drivers license. I sure can't remember whether I paid it or not.

    I have since 1996 renewed my California license, received an Ohio license, renewed, my Ohio license all without problems. Then suddenly this pops up. How long can they do this? Isn't there some sort of statute of limitations? Can anyone prove they paid every traffic ticket they've ever gotten?

    There's no statute of limitations on a license suspension. If you want to get your license reinstated, you have to pay the fines and reinstatement fees. You can't "wait it out".

    No, obviously, not everyone has proof of every ticket they've ever paid. But if you did pay, you need to start digging for any proof of payment.
