This law says a driver’s license stays suspended until they either pay the court‑ordered money or show they can afford to pay it.

Key Takeaways

  • •The suspension stays on until the court judgment is satisfied.
  • •Satisfaction means paying the money or proving you can pay.
  • •The licensing director must receive the proof before a new license is issued.

Example

A driver causes a car crash and a court orders them to pay $3,000 in damages. Their license is suspended.

The driver can’t get the license back until they either pay the $3,000 or give the licensing office proof they have enough money to cover the payment.
