Which of the following will lead to an automatic suspension of your license?

• A. Four or more traffic violations
• B. Attempting to flee a police officer
• C. Possessing a fake license
• D. Failure to maintain financial responsibility

Answer: (C)

Having a counterfeit or fake driver's license is treated as fraud and triggers immediate suspension of driving privileges as soon as the licensing authority becomes aware. This shows you do not have a valid license to drive, so the system acts right away to prevent someone from operating a vehicle with fraudulent credentials.

Other scenarios may lead to suspension, but typically only after a process—such as notices, hearings, or accumulation of violations—rather than automatically. For example, accumulating traffic violations or failing to maintain financial responsibility can result in suspension once the appropriate steps are completed, and fleeing from police can bring charges that may lead to suspension later, not automatically at the moment of the act.

So the automatic action comes from possessing a fake license because it directly signals you’re not legally authorized to drive.
