Answered by attorney Stephanie Hartung (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Mercado & Hartung, PLLC
If you are caught driving while suspended (which an officer can determine very easily by running your license plate) you will be arrested and your car can be impounded. The penalty will depend on what degree you are suspended in, 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. Driving while license suspended (DWLS) in the third degree is a misdemeanor and is punishable by fine and up to 90 days in jail. DWLS 2nd degree is a gross misdemeanor and is punishable up to a year in jail and conviction will result in a an additional 1 year license suspension. DWLS 1st degree carries a mandatory 10 days in jail for a first offense, 90 days in jail for a second offense, and 180 days in jail for 3rd offenses. You are DWLS 3rd, if your license is eligible for reinstatement, but requires payment. Examples of DWLS 3 include failure to pay an infraction or child support, once you resolve the money owed you can reinstate your license. DWLS 2 is the category of suspension when your license is suspended for a specific amount of time. An example of DWLS 2 is when a person's license is suspended for 90 days due to a DUI conviction. DWLS 1 is a gross misdemeanor and is a status imposed when a person has been ruled a habitual traffic offender from the DOL and suspended for 7 years. If you currently are facing a charge you should consult a lawyer to discuss your options. If you are just suspended and contemplating the risk you should consult a lawyer to discuss the alternative licenses available to persons with license suspensions.

Is it possible the parents of my son's girl friend can have my son arrested?

No. To be prosecuted for rape there would have to be a lack of consent on her part (i.e., forcible compulsion) or he would have had to be over 21.

Generally, not in the same trial. And if the testimony could implicate her, then she should take the 5th amendment It is best to have her attorney go over the details and to plan how to raise any objections to testifying.
