The answer is that you can purchase a moped. The significant thing about a moped is that it does not require that the user actually have a driver’s license in order to be able to use it to go back and forth. That’s just kind of a peculiarity of South Carolina law and it’s a loophole that you can work through in the event that you get a DUI or a second DUI and your license is either suspended indefinitely or pending your temporary hearing.
If you need to get back and forth to work as most people do, you obviously need a paycheck in order to be able to pay for everything, the simple solution is to purchased a moped. You will need the moped while you’re waiting for your temporary hearing to come up immediately following your DUI and in the interim if you have the money and it’s available, you can pursue a provisional license that’s route-restricted. It allows you to go back and forth to work.
Unfortunately, a lot of people don’t have the money to be able to do that so they go out and they will get a cheap moped and that will allow you to be able to go back and forth to work and to continue earning the amount of money that you need to feed your family and to potentially pay your legal fees as well as any administrative costs associated with your recent DUI.
A moped is the perfect solution to that. I would say as a public service announcement, the top speed of most mopeds is anywhere between 35 and 40 miles an hour. You need to be very mindful of the traffic that’s immediately around you and be smart. Stay in the right lane, the slow lane and maybe even closer to the bike lane and just be mindful of the cars that are around you.
If you have additional questions concerning your DUI, I would strongly encourage you contact The Hartman Firm at 843-300-7600.
