    It prohibits parents that need license to keep or maintain employment and to survive. Some parent have feel down on their luck and get behind. They almost can't get back on track with this license suspension.

    child support should work harder for the parent to have rights to spend time with the child rather than worrying about locking someone up or taking their license from them.

    It is wrong, you are making it difficult for those who what's to pay but are not able to because you are limiting them. In every turn these fathers take things are harder not easier on them. They are never giving a chance especially those that want to.

    This is the most counter intuitive punitive consequence imaginable. In Florida, public transportation is woefully lacking -- this law makes no sense.

    There should never be a law like this and it should be amended. Depending on how long of a duration and no interest should be applied for first and second time offenders. Seasons change as well as the work loads, this should also be recognised. Supply and Demand(People eat more Turkey during Thanksgiving than any other Season)

    Who can overturn a license suspension? I am a tattoo artist, never received a suspension letter and during a routine health inspection was fined 2500 for suspended lisence. Child support has ****ed my career and I don't know wat to do.

    I have been paying $227.00 a week for the past nine years. I lost my job and have not been able to pay child support, can barely pay my rent and utilities. Instead of helping me during my time of need the State of New York has now placed it's foot on my throat to further cripple me. My licence was suspended and now even further limits who will hire me and now i can't even drive to look for a job. Way to go New York. This is the way you treat someone who has been a law abiding tax paying citizen. You have now forced me to drive illegally. Try giving the fathers who have done the right thing a break for once.

    I think it horrible to suspend the drivers license. I have had county, state and federal workers say their hands are tied. It is like the government is still on an old horse and buggy system, frustrating for all. It is time to stop this old broken down system and help everyone, especially the most vunerable amongst us, our children!

    I totally disagree with the system, which. Is set up for the women..it takes two to make a baby so it should the mothers responsibility as well as the father to support the child, and not just wait in the child support or any assistance from the state...make these women pull their load as well..

    My license was suspended several time because I fail behind on child support payments. As a direct result, I was forced to drive because I needed to drive in order to work to provide for my family and to keep a roof over my head. Moreover, consequently my license was taken away for 5 years following suspension from child support in Broward county fl. I have been arrest and I have also missed out on a career job opportunity because my license is suspended. It's very sadistic!

    I just can't figure out the reasoning behind suspending a man's drivers liscense for being 30 days behind on child support when that man is paying every two weeks out of his check to try to catch up. By suspending my liscense you have taken away my right to work.. there isnt a single job I have been to that doesn't require a liscense. Oh yea and three years ago before it was suspended for the first time I had a class a cdl liscense I know you all don't give a******but do you realize that after a cdl is suspended that you have to wait THREE YEARS before anyone will hire you as a driver again... all because your liscense was suspended.. doesn't matter that it had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WAY I DRIVE!!!!! SUSPENDED IS SUSPENDED no matter how ****ing stupid or useless the reason is.. so I would like to thank you. You have successfully turned all the single hardworking dad's that got a little behind once or twice into the man selling dope on the street corner cuz he can't drive or get a job with no ****ing liscense.... boy yall really ****ed this one up!!!
