License Suspension Facts

If you have been arrested on suspicion of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and it was determined that:

  • You tested over the legal limit for alcohol, marijuana or drugs.
  • Or accused of refusing a breath or blood test.

Your license will be subject to an administrative suspension or revocation on the 30th day following your arrest.

The length of the suspension depends on several factors.  In fact, the department of licensing will revoke or suspend your driver’s license even if your DUI criminal charge is never filed or is dismissed in court.
