Q: Is there a way to remove or request to remove the "Violate Restriction of DL" from my records for MN drivers?
I got a ticket for "VIOLATE RESTRICTION OF DL" for driving on Instruction permit only without the presence of License holder in car. I had the valid insurance though and it happened 1 years back. I already paid the fine but i want it removed from my records now. Is there a way to get it removed?
A: Paying the fine is the equivalent of a guilty plea to the charge. Getting it off of your driving record would require that you pursue an expungement.
A: You could try an expungement. But a motion to withdraw plea could be easier and more effective. After filing the motion with the court, at the hearing, you or your lawyer could try to negotiate a guilty plea to a different, amended charge that would not affect your license. (Though, it's unclear whether this is affecting your license, now.)
