What is the name of your state? - Live in Virginia, DUI in Maryland
I was arrested for DUI in Maryland (see previous post) but live and licensed in Virginia. When I was arrested, the cop told me my Maryland driving privledges would suspend on the 46th day, for 45 days. So basically I can drive legally in Maryland until 5/15/07. They call this "Administrative License Suspension". But the cop also said my driving privledges in Virginia would not be suspended, and he did not take my license away. (BTW, the cop was a nice enough guy, but kinda unfamliair with things - I think he may have been a "Rookie" so I didn't believe alot of what he said.) I don't care about driving in Maryland because I never do, and just so happened to be away for the weekend when I got arrested. But I do care about Virginia because I live and work here. Here's my question: Since this is an adminstrative suspension and I have not been to court yet, (First offense) will Maryland share this with Virginia? I know if I get CONVICTED they will, but I haven't yet. I know there is a difference between Administrative and actual "Your busted" suspensions. Please - Anyone that may know, I would appreciate an answer.
