The penalties upon first conviction for driving while under suspension are:

If someone is operating a vehicle while their licence is suspended, and they get into an accident, their auto insurance policy is less likely to cover ANY damages to the vehicles involved. Other consequences include:
- Not being eligible to receive benefits such as income replacement coverage
- Becoming personally liable for damages and injuries suffered by the other party involved in any such accident
