Default Any of us lost our licence?

So the letter arrived, 1 month to go before I loose my freedom, apart from being very upset and feeling unjustly treated, I am wondering what to do with my self for 3 months while I'm confined to my prison... At least the jeep will get some attention.
Has anyone else been in this situation?
I'll be quitting my job soon (because it relies on it), I was thinking taking unemployment benefits for a few months, although very much against what I believe in, I think I might get back even a tiny bit of the tens of thousands I've paid in tax every year.

At least I'll spend more time on here too.

Cheers folks.

Tough luck DB. I lost mine 20 years ago for three months and it was pretty shit. I am glad it was only for three months. DUI and you are really F#####.

don't drive whilst suspended, seriously. sh!t will get real fast.

I lost my licence for a few years for refusing a secondary breath reading at the station (did not understand the law, young and stupid) cost me my job, had to move. I don't even do 5km's over now, there is no way I ever want to repeat it.

If you are forced to quit your job then can you not apply for a limited, concessionary licence ?

Thanks for the consolation AG, and the heads up Sladey, I'll make sure I don't
Apart from sit around and play with yourselves what did you blokes do in the mean time?

Warod, I have heard of those but know nothing about them.
Did you ever use one?

It's never happened to me so I don't know a great deal about it but I know you can apply for a 'work license' if driving is a requirement of your Job... Might be worth looking in to mate.
