Q: Court order to install iid but I don't own a car the dmv approved my exemption can I my license back

Does that mean I can't get my license back untill I can buy a car?

Dale S. Gribow

answered on Nov 28, 2022

this is a DMV issue ...not a court issue.

DMV requires the IID before you can get your license back. Thus you would go to DMV and request an ID Card. It looks like a CDL.

if they return/reissued your CDL there would be no way for you to be stopped from driving someones car.
