Racine, WI

The cost of the driving without a license ticket should/must be written on the ticket by the office.

The Wisconsin clerk of the court states that the dollar amount written on your ticket is actually a combination of a forfeiture and numerous fees and surcharges.

A ticket for driving with license expired or without any license in Racine and all cities in Wisconsin is a three point surcharge, which is estimated at $125.90.

Reader’s Question:

My elderly grandfathers drivers license expired last January and he continues to drive his vehicle. Apparently he couldn’t see well enough to complete the renewal exam, so he will likely would not be given a renewal even if he tried. If he gets involve in an accident, will his car insurance cover his losses if he is knowingly driving without a license? We both live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

If your grandfather is currently insured now in Eau Claire, WI he will be covered for the insurance coverage he has, even if the drivers license is expired. But, when the car insurance policy is renewed usually the driving record is run and it will be known that he doesn’t have a valid drivers license. Then he would have to obtain it or be canceled or no renewed. Also he will obtain a ticket for driving with suspended/revoked license and can be arrested as well.
