MAY, Judge

Thad Suggs III appeals his sentence for Class C felony operating a motor vehicle while privileges are forfeited for life.1 We affirm. FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY On January 3, 2011, Suggs attempted to drive to the hospital to seek medical attention for a cut on his hand. Suggs knew he was an habitual traffic offender and that he had forfeited his driver's license for life. The State charged Suggs with Class C felony operating a motor vehicle while privileges are forfeited for life. Suggs entered a plea of guilty to the charge against him without the benefit of a plea agreement. After a hearing, the court pronounced an eight-year sentence, which is the maximum permitted for a Class C felony. See Ind. Code
