Sus

Suspension
Your driver’s license may be suspended by the state you live in for a variety of reasons. Some suspensions are related to driving offences, while others are not. You may also face suspensions if you fail a driver’s licensing test. You could face fines and even your license being revoked if you drive despite the suspension.
