I know the obvious of being polite and respectful. do I show up early like an airport? Do I just show the guard my ticket? Anything I should know or be aware of?

    Do you have a valid reason for not receiving mail re: renewal of license? Move recently? It’s not an excuse but it is an explanation for why it happened.

      I’m housing insecure. I’ve always worked hard but it’s never been “my place” it’s always a roommate or girlfriend and I move around A LOT. Plus one of the symptoms of my ADHD is “time blindness” it’s hard for me to judge how much time has passed between two events. That’s why I didn’t think about my license might be expired. 1 year, 7 years, 12 years… It all feels the same to me.

        “I’m sorry your honor. I have a medical condition and it can be hard for me to keep track of dates. I don’t have a doctors note for that but I could get one if I need to. I’ve also moved residences so I didn’t get the notification to renew. I’m going to get my renewal as soon as I can.”
