Hit and run (of an occupied vehicle)

Why was my license revoked?

You were convicted in court and they submitted the conviction information to us to be recorded on your driving record.

How long will my license be revoked?

1 year.

Can I get a restricted license?

Yes, after you have been suspended for 90 days you may get an Occupational Restricted License (ORL), as long as you have no other suspensions on your driving record that would prevent us from issuing you the ORL.

Can I contest or appeal the revocation?

Yes, you may request an administrative review within 15 days from the date on your suspension letter. The suspension letter we send to you includes a form to request a review of the suspension.

How can I get my license back?

When you are eligible to reinstate your driver license, you must:

  • file future proof of financial responsibility, also known as an SR-22, for 3 years from the date you are eligible to reinstate your driver license for that incident.
  • pay a $75 reissue fee, in addition to any other licensing fees, the next time you apply for a Washington driver license.
