DRIVER SUSPENSION ELIGIBILITY WEEK

The SC DMV is holding the annual Driver Suspension Eligibility Week for drivers with licenses suspended for various reasons for the week of March 6-10, 2023

Drivers who have lost their driving privileges due to certain suspensions, may be able to reduce or clear the remaining time of their suspension.  Drivers with the following types of suspensions are eligible for the program:

  • Excessive points for someone under the age of 18
  • Operating an unlicensed taxi
  • Operating an uninsured vehicle that they did not own
  • Operating or allowing someone else to operate an uninsured vehicle
  • Driving under suspension, excluding alcohol or drug related conviction

If you think you may be eligible, visit SCDMVOnline.com to ensure your correct mailing address is on file with the agency or update your mailing address with the SCDMV as soon as possible.
