First, you need to understand that there is a difference between licensing and insurance. You were arrested for driving under suspension, which doesn’t have anything to do with car insurance. It sounds as though the courts or the DMV made an error in processing your payment and ended up suspending your driver’s license. If the court accepted your proof of insurance, that doesn’t mean they forgave your speeding fine. So, either you failed to pay the speeding fine, or the court did not process your payment correctly. The first thing to do is find out why your license was suspended. It seems most likely it was because of the speeding fine.
