Exceptions

If there was insurance on the vehicle when the citation was issued, provide this office with a copy of the citation that was issued and have your insurance company provide the Department with a letter of verification. This letter must be on insurance company or agency letterhead, be signed by an authorized representative of the insurance company and the representative must include the title of the position they hold with the company (i.e. Agent, Claims Representative, etc.). The letter will need to provide your personal information (i.e. name, date of birth, current mailing address), policy number, policyholder, date of citation and it must state you were covered with insurance when the citation was issued.  If you are the insurance agent or a representative of the insurance company - you can download an instruction sheet and a printable copy (fill in the blank by hand) of the Letter of Verification.

Upon receipt of these documents – the Department of Motor Vehicles will review the file and possibly withdraw the suspension from your record.
