A: The Secretary of State can suspend your license for a single conviction at your age. Sometimes a traffic school course or community service may be imposed to prevent a conviction and license suspension. It must be handled properly in court. Your parents may want to consult with an attorney to discuss your options.

A: Your parents need to hire an attorney to assist you with this matter. The sooner an attorney is hired, the better.
