| notice of intent to prohibit
i just got a letter notice of intent to prohibit... getting suspended for 3 months for "bad driving record".. so i have 21 days to hand in my liscence, now its about 15 days to hand in... i want to hand it in on the last day but if i get pulled over befor the 15 days can a officer take my liscence and impound my car? or do they do that only if the 21 days is over... i want to drive to work befor the 15 days is over, and also drive on the road while i still can legaly.. reason im asking this is because i want to go out and do stuff that i want while i still can within these 15 days but i dont want to get pulled over and get my liscence takin away befor the 15 days has expired.. any help would be great.

Would you really want to test your luck and try option two?
Besides, you knew very well coming into this that having a bad driving record will get you suspended. The whole idea is to reiterate that driving is a privilege and not a right. From what I remember, you're suspended the day you get your letter. If you're caught, you're hooped.

the sooner you hand it in the sooner the 3 months is up so you might as well put it in soon

You've been notified. Your prohibition started on the day you got the letter, not the day you hand your license in. Regardless of the fact you still have your license in your hand, you are now a prohibited driver and could be convicted if caught driving.

If you are not served by mail then Police are told to serve the prohibition when they stop you. This is the way when people duck service, have moved and do not have their correct address (within 10 days of a move you must inform the MVB), or "never got the registered letter containing the prohibition notice".
As you are instantly prohibited when stopped, you can no longer drive & your car is impounded. There is discretion to the Police to issue you a temp DL to get home but this is seldom used.

It must be tough being a dial-a-doper without a car. Just use public transit to meet up with your clients from now on. http://www.revscene.net/forums/showt...ghlight=breach

^ I think you are crossing the line by judging someone that harsh according to some minor hints. Breaching is very risky especially with those conditions; more than driving while prohibited. You took the time to search his other post just to accuse and dishonour a fellow revscener who never did you any harm.

But aren't you doing exactly what you're accusing ImpactX of doing? Judging someone w/ some minor hints? Now you took the time try to try to accuse him as well.

So you were served with a prohib notice in July and now you got a second one and you still don't understand the process..? Maybe this ( "i have bought alot though which is why they think im selling drugs..") is part of your problem?

you have a short grace period of a few days...
What happened to a friend is he said he never got it, as he had been at his girlfriend's house - True! He had been there for four days.
He got pulled over, the license was pulled on the spot, and the cop gave him like a two hour temporary yellow paper license.
Having said that, don't count on it, I think he got lucky.
I didn't want to turn in my ID so I held onto it. Mostly just because I didn't want to pay to get a BC ID card for the bars. I claimed, three months later, that it had been lost in the mail, and presented a photocopy of their letter signed and dated. I did it that morning. She asked me rather suspiciously, and I said "Oh, my uncle is a lawyer and my mom's an accountant, I got their habit of photocopying important correspondance and putting it in a file"
Now, are you at the point where you have 21 days to dispute and plea your case for a reduction? Or have you already done that? If you dispute, you have more time. Then a month later, they pass a verdict.
Anyways. So, best case scenario is you have 21 days to dispute it, which is what it sounds like. If you get a letter via registered mail, that's them demanding your license. Note that the 21 days is from when they sent the letter out.

The more points you get, the more closer for you to get suspended.
