  • Penalties for Driving Without a License in New Jersey

    The state of New Jersey takes driving without a license very seriously. If a person without a license is on the road, they can put themselves and others at risk, in addition to blatantly breaking the law. As a result, they can be penalized for their actions. New Jersey law N.J.S.A. 39:3-40 outlines the penalties for people caught driving without a license. The consequences are as follows:

    • Individuals facing their first offense can be charged with a $500 fine as well as a license suspension for up to 6 months.
    • Those facing a second offense can be charged a $750 fine, an extended license suspension up to 6 more months, and possible jail time up to 5 days.
    • For third or subsequent offenders, they can face a $1000 fine, an additional license suspension up to 6 months, and possible jail time up to 10 days.

    It is important to be aware that these penalties can become more serious depending on how severe the case is. For example, if a person drives without a license and injures another party, they can face imprisonment between 45 and 180 days. In addition to this, if a driver is under the influence without a license, they can face license revocation for 1 to 2 years as well as up to 90 days in jail. Offenders can also face state surcharges of $250 every year for 3 years.
