What is the name of your state- Maryland
Last week I was driving with my phone in my hand. I wasn't talking or texting, but I did have it in my hand. I was pulled over and I accepted the ticket because I shouldn't have had it in my hand. The officer asked for my license and registration, which were both valid...or so I thought. He proceeded to tell me that my license was suspended in August by the Medical Advisory Board. When I renewed my license, I answered a question that triggered an inquiry by the Medical Advisory Board. They normally send me a form to have my doctor fill out and I go about my business. According to the Medical Advisory Board, they mailed the form to my old address. I moved 2 years ago and immediately changed my address on my license in 2014. I was arrested, processed, had my mugshots and fingerprints taken, all because the Medical Advisory Board never received the form back. I obviously couldn't mail it back because they sent it to the wrong address.
I was just told that if they decide to reinstate my license, I will have to reapply for my license ($84) and pay all over again. I will also need to hire an attorney because this is a jailable offense. There is also no sense of urgency. I am unable to get to work, school or doctor's appointments.
Is there anything that I can do besides sit and wait?
