What charge should be applied if a driver is pulled over and their driver's license has been suspended for non-payment of child support?

Driving without a license
Driving while license revoked
Driving under the influence
Negligent driving

The correct answer is: Driving while license revoked

The appropriate charge in this situation is driving while license revoked. When a driver has had their license suspended specifically for non-payment of child support, the suspension means they no longer have legal permission to operate a vehicle. The law differentiates between simply lacking a license and having one's driving privileges revoked due to specific legal reasons, such as failing to meet child support obligations. Driving while license revoked accurately reflects that the person was operating a vehicle without the required legal permissions resulting from the suspension. This charge emphasizes the fact that their driving privileges were not just expired but actively revoked due to legal non-compliance, distinguishing it from other offenses like driving without a license. Other options do not apply in this case, as they pertain to different infractions that do not take the specific reason for the license suspension into account.
