Reader’s Question:

I was convicted in OH when I was only 15 then for driving without a license. I am now 18 and have been living in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for the past two years. When went to take the driver’s written examination I was told I was ineligible because the state of Ohio suspended my license and requiring me to have an SR22 form. I dont understand because I never had a license before.

It seems like you were cited for driving without a license and without auto insurance when you were still in OH. Even though you were a minor, without a driver’s license, Ohio could have started a driving record for you already and included these infraction. It is indeed possible to obtain points and citations already listed on your MVR before you even begin to have a license.

If you took care of your OH ticket previously by means like going to court then you should contact the OH Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) to straighten this out. If you ignored this citation or moved to Oklahoma before your penalties were straighten out you need to take care of them now. You may contact Ohio’s BMV to know how exactly to get your license out of suspension, so that you can get an OK license.
