The 28-year-old had her license suspended back in 2012 after she was involved in two hit-and-run accidents and was arrested for a DUI.
She was spotted driving in Los Angeles with her father on Sunday, and according to People Magazine, DMV records indicate her suspension has since been lifted.

Bynes consistently made headlines in 2013 for increasingly erratic behaviors, bizarre Twitter messages and rants and for changing her look with various colored wigs and cheek piercings. After setting a fire in a driveway in her hometown of Thousand Oaks, Calif. she was placed under an involuntary psychiatric hold at an L.A. hospital before being transferred to a rehab facility. She was released from the facility in December 2013.
At the time of her hospitalization, it was reported that the actress had been diagnosed with both schizophrenia and bipolar disorders, though her mother Lynn has since claimed that her daughter was never diagnosed with the disorders and her behaviors were all a result of marijuana usage.
"Amanda has no mental illness whatsoever," Lynn Bynes told E! News April 9. "She has never been diagnosed as schizophrenic or bipolar. Amanda is very sorry for all the hurtful tweets, statements and actions that occurred while she was under the influence of marijuana."
Amanda's lawyer also refuted claims the actress had been diagnosed with the disorders, and said she is now off any medications and has been marijuana-free for nine months.
"Amanda is currently on zero medication," Tamar Arminak told People. "She's devoted to living her life as healthy as possible. She's never had a history of abusing alcohol or hard drugs, and she's proud to say she has been marijuana-free for the past nine months."
