A: If you failed to appear for a minor traffic offense such as speeding, your license may be suspended. You will need to clear up the issue to get your license reinstated.

If you failed to appear for a criminal matter or serious traffic offense, then there is a warrant out for your arrest. You should consult with an attorney who can file a motion to recall the warrant.
