driver’s license suspension

According to the Orange County Register, four drivers were stopped and cited for driving immediately after having their driver’s license suspended or revoked. The Costa Mesa Police Department staked out courtrooms at the Harbor Justice Center in Newport Beach, California. They followed 16 DUI offenders who had just had their license suspended or revoked. Four out of the 16 ignored the judge’s order to cease from driving. The drivers were immediately stopped and cited for driving on a suspended/revoked license. Three of the cars were impounded.
