Hi, I'm currently in school to become an LPN in the state of Fl and set to graduate in August. I just checked my states BON website and saw that pleading guilty/not guilty/no contest to driving with a suspended license is considered criminal history. I thought this was just a traffic offense and didn't think I would have to report it. I did have to go to court after being pulled over and plead guilty/no contest and told I have to pay court costs but I was not arrested. I have went to court for this 2 times, the first in 2013 and the second last year. To be honest my insurance is really expensive, and I am only 23 now. I know this is not an excuse, but this is the only reason my license ever got suspended. I just want to know if anyone has had a similar situation and still have been able to obtain their nursing license. Though its considered a criminal offense, I know Im not a criminal. I've never been in trouble for anything and I've never been arrested. Im just curious ad to how the BON may view this and if I am able to get me license will this be attached and look bad to any future employers. thanks!
