What happens if I get caught without a license in Kansas?

If I get into an accident and don't have a license, what will happen? I've never needed one since I only drive occasionally.

“A first-time conviction for driving without a license in
Kansas
is a misdemeanor, a crime which carries up to:
  • six months in jail
  • a $1,000 fine
  • a 90-day license suspension
Even though it seems impossible to suspend a license that doesn’t exist, the Kansas Department of Revenue creates an electronic profile that suspends the person from using or obtaining a driver’s license for 90 days.
To avoid further legal penalties, you’ll also want to make sure that the vehicle you’re driving has valid
car insurance
