Question: Can I get a valid drivers license in another state if I had received a DWI charge in another Missouri ?

Received a DWI in Independence Missouri 1 year ago and did not attend the mandatory driving course . Now that I need a license I can’t get one issued to due to being flagged

 

Answer:

No you cannot. Through the interstate compact system a suspended license do to a DWI prevents you from getting a license in another state. You must address the DWI Case in Missouri first and complete the reinstatement requirements. Those usually include taking satop, vip, and having an ignition interlock along with paying a reinstatment fee.
