Can your Florida drivers license be suspended if you are arrested for possession while in a park Walking no car?

In Florida, your driver's license can be suspended if you are arrested for possession of a controlled substance, even if you are not operating a vehicle at the time of the arrest. This is because Florida has a zero-tolerance policy for drug possession, and any type of drug possession can result in the suspension of your driver's license.

If you are arrested for possession of a controlled substance, the arresting officer will likely confiscate your driver's license and issue you a temporary paper license. You will then need to appear in court for your arraignment, where the judge will determine whether or not to suspend your driver's license.

If you are convicted of possession of a controlled substance, your driver's license will automatically be suspended for a period of time determined by the judge. The length of the suspension will depend on the type of drug you were found in possession of and your prior criminal record.

In addition to a driver's license suspension, you may also face other penalties for possession of a controlled substance such as fines, probation, or even jail time.
