RETURN TO THE ROAD CAMPAIGN

Our Supporters:

A person’s ability to pay a fine or a fee should not determine whether they are free to drive.


A valid driver’s license is essential to participating in Ohio’s economy, where, according to the 2021 U.S. Census, 74% of people drive alone to work and 8% carpool, with an average commute of 23 minutes. But debt-related suspensions trap low-income Ohioans in a difficult cycle where they cannot legally drive to work to earn the money required to pay off the debt that is keeping their license suspended.


The Ohio Poverty Law Center is partnering with the Fines and Fees Justice Center and the Free to Drive Campaign, and national, state, and local stakeholders, to ensure that a person’s ability to pay a fine or a fee will no longer determine whether they are free to drive in Ohio.
