If you are charged with a DUI, you must act within 10 days from the date of your arrest in order to keep your driver’s license from being suspended or revoked. If you are in any of the categories listed below, you must request a hearing within 10 days or your license may be suspended for up to 1 year:
- If you submitted to the state-administered breath test and your test result registered .08 or higher, you should act immediately to request a hearing.
- If you were under 21 years of age at the time you received a DUI and you submitted to the state-administered breath test that registered .02 or higher, you should act immediately to request a hearing.
- If you have a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL), you were in a commercial vehicle at the time you received a DUI, and you submitted to the state-administered breath test that registered .04 or higher, you should act immediately to request a hearing.
- If you refused to take the test requested by the officer that arrested you for DUI, you should act immediately to request a hearing.
- If you are uncertain of what the officer requested, whether you properly submitted to the requested test, or what your test result was, you should act immediately to request a hearing.
