MIssouri DUI / DWI-- limited driving privileges to work to pay child support
No. RSMo. Section 454.1010.9 provides that a limited driving privilege pursuant to RSMo. Section 302.309 is not available to work to pay child support. The driver must petition the court which entered the child support order or which has jurisdiction over the child support arrearage order for a stay of the order in cases of hardship. The Director of Revenue cannot issue limited driving privileges in this situation.
