Can you get a temporary driver's license in California?

Can I get a drivers license in California even though i currently have a probationary license?

• I got in trouble 4 years back, quite a bit actually. A lot of driving on suspended license charges. No trouble for the past 4 years and i currently hold a Washington State drivers license. I do have a probationary license though which means i cant get two moving violations with in a year or I lose my license for about another 5 years. I want to move to california because I have a great job oppurtunity. Will I have problems getting a drivers license? people at the dmv were no help today on the phone...

• Answer:

  You shouldn't California is pretty easy with the law. Just call them or email them and explain. Here is a link http://www.dmv.org/ca-california/suspended-license.php#Obtain-a-Restricted-License it says, "Obtain a Restricted License In certain circumstances, you can apply for and obtain a restricted license. For example, first-time DUI offenders can complete a DUI program through the state to then be eligible for a restricted driver’s license. To learn more about the options available for your particular situation, contact the DMV at (800) 777-0133 or consult an attorney."
