License reinstatement, substance abuse traffic offender program
If someone's driver's license was suspended or revoked for certain alcohol or drug reasons, they have to do two things before getting it back: pay a $20 fee and finish a substance abuse traffic offender program. The person in the program also pays extra fees to help fund that program. The person running the program has to send those extra fees to the state every month. If they don't pay on time, they get charged interest and penalties. If they still don't pay after six months, the state's attorney general can take them to court.
