need advice on suspended license

[pyroman]

On Sept. 19 2005 I drove on a permit by myself and ran a stop sign because i didnt fully stop. I got pulled over and recieved two tickets, 1 for running the stop sign and 2, violation of learners license. i was 15. I asked the cop if it'd affect when i get my license and he said it wouldn't. But, of course I got a letter in the mail saying I was on business purpose only until oct. 14 2006. I was suppose to obtain my license July 1st 2006. I went July 5th and the dmv told me I couldn't attempt at getting the license until Oct. 14th. So during that time I screwed up real bad and got pulled over again by a speed gun from a cop when I was going 39 in a 30 speed zone. So I got 3 MORE tickets 1. violation of learners license 2. 39 in a 30 zone speeding. 3. not having my permit on me while driving. accumulating to $276.50 of tickects. I got a well advertised lawyer here in jacksonville, florida and he only got two tickets witheld. the speeding and the having the license on me tickets but couldn't get the violation of learner's license off. He sent me a letter telling me this. Though, he failed to inform me that the judge had sentenced me to 1 extra year from that court date to not drive again. When I read online that it is only suppose to be a extra 90 days for every point which would have given me 3 x 90 days for the 1 remaining ticket left but 270 days sounds better to me then 360 especially since I have a job and a Single parent and I'm a junior in highschool and now I can't drive until well into the start of my senior year. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?!?!?!?! I've got about 600 dollars of fees out of all this mess and I still can't drive! all I want is to get my license. PLease tell me if there is anything I can do.

Stop driving. Leave parenthood to adults. Grow up (to become a proper parent for your child).

That's all you can do for now.

Once you've matured enough to handle the responsibility, get you license. Until then, enjoy the bicycle.

Pyroman, what state is this in?

Sukharev, this kid obviously has little disregard for the law and safe driving, so it seems clear that he shouldn't be driving. I, for one, have no problem with his being a pedestrian for a few years. We can call it maturing time.

Wow, just how much do they pay high school kids in Florida? The cost of the tickets, A prominent attorney to fight the tickets, insurance is not cheap for teenagers to begin with, how much is it after a couple of moving violations. Let's not forget formula and diapers, you being a single parent and all.

Pyro, driving is NOT a right - it is a privilege. Your actions seem to indicate that you do not deserve this privilege until you have done some growing. You keep driving without a license, and you keep breaking traffic laws! You are already in the single most dangerous age band of drivers there is (by almost 500%) and seem to be demonstrating why this is so.

Take a few breaths, arrange for transport from friends or via public transportation, and mature a little. When that happens you will find that the world does NOT revolve around your car.
