How Do I Regain Driving Privileges in Kansas?

Repeat offenders are not eligible for the Restricted Driving Privilege option, but in some cases, they may apply for a Limited Driving Privilege often referred to as a hardship license. There is no option for a limited commercial driver’s license. To qualify, offenders must either submit an application to the Department of Revenue or petition the court.

They also need to:

• Complete the Application for Limited Driving Privilege Form.
• Obtain and show proof of SR-22 insurance coverage.
• If there is more than one offense or their license is currently revoked, offenders must provide proof of IID installation.
• Must keep IID installed during the entire time they have the LDP.

Other things the offender must do to qualify include:

• Pay a filing fee and court costs associated with the application.
• Pay any legal fees if necessary.
• Submit a form proving SR-22 insurance coverage.
• If there are multiple alcohol offenses or an active Chemical Revocation on the driver’s record, they must submit proof that an IID has been installed in any/all vehicles the offender operates.

If the court approves the application, the offender will receive an Order Granting Limited Driving Privilege..

Program maintenance:

• Bring your IID in for monthly calibration service as indicated on the device, every 30 days, as required by DMV to maintain good standing with the IID Program.
