In my interviews w/(sentenced) defendants for my research on plea bargaining in rural NY, almost all told me they drove w/suspensions bc no way could they get to work, school, kids to daycare, grocery shop, etc w/o driving bc rural areas lack public transportation infrastructures
WATCH: 44 states suspend driver's licenses over unpaid fines and fees. This cruel and counter-productive practice punishes poverty, undermines public safety, and undercuts economic growth.
