Reader’s Question:

If my drivers license was revoked due to DUI in TN, and after a year I was convicted of Driving on Revoked. What do I do to obtain a restricted license in Tuscaloosa Alabama?

According to the Alabama Department of Public Safety (DPS) driver license shall not be issued to any individual whose driving rights or privilege is revoked or suspended in any state.

The state of Alabama does not offer a hardship license if your drivers license has been revoked or suspended. This means you will not be given special permission to operate to and from work or to drive on the job.

So under the existing AL Code of laws a driver’s license may not be issued to any individual whose driving privilege or rights is revoked or suspended.

So currently in Alabama a hardship license is not available however you should verify with the AL legislation to check where HB 112 stands and if there is any hope of a hardship license being allowed in the near future in this state if this is where you are living. Even if the hardship license becomes available since it seems you do not have an Alabama license but one revoked in Tennessee you may still not be eligible for an Alabama license of any type, again you would have to verify with the Alabama DPS.
