DMV DEFENSE - CRIMINAL DEFENSE
DWI DUI and the DMV - Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is a serious offense in California. The penalties that come with a DUI conviction depend on many aspects of the case as well as whether this is your first or subsequent offense. Penalties may include:
- Suspension or loss of driving privileges
- Jail terms
- Fines
- Mandatory educational programs
- Installation of an ignition interlock device in your car.
- Drastic increases in insurance premium rates and issues in obtaining credit
Remember that criminal charges are only one aspect of a DUI. When you are pulled over on suspicion of DUI and have a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.08 percent and above or refuse to take the test, the arresting officer will take away your license immediately and hand you a pink slip. This works as a formal notice of a possible license suspension. While the sheet allows you temporary driving privileges, you will need to ask for a DMV hearing within ten days following the arrest.
