Additional Information |
Originally from Automobile Insurance Subrogation in All 50 States, Fourth Edition. Chapter 5 surveys the license suspension laws, regulations, and procedures of all 51 jurisdictions and is an invaluable resource for subrogation professionals looking to suspend the license of an uninsured tortfeasor. Automobile Insurance Subrogation in All 50 States is not a book on collection of judgments and debts. However, in light of the high percentages of uninsured drivers in the United States, no book on automobile insurance would be complete without at least a cursory treatment of suspending drivers’ licenses as a collection tool. Each state treats differently the suspension of a driver’s license as a consequence of being involved in an at-fault accident without proper liability insurance. The wide variety of approaches is, in part, due to the philosophically different approaches to the subject of whether driving is a right or a privilege. Chapter 5 sets forth each state’s laws dealing with administrative license suspensions, whether or not the state allows a subrogated carrier to initiate and/or request a suspension, and the procedure for suspending a license when you have a judgment which remains unsatisfied. In the new fourth edition, criminal restitution for all 51 jurisdictions is also covered in this chapter. See above for a synopsis of the chapter and a sample of the initial pages.
