Driver License RevocationWhen a person is arrested for driving while under the influence (DUI), in most cases it results in both the filing of criminal charges against the person and revocation of the person's driver's license. The length of the revocation, the availability of a limited license (work permit) and the requirements for license reinstatement will vary depending on the person's prior record, whether or not they submitted to alcohol testing, and the results of the alcohol test. If the arrested person refuses the officer's request to take a test, or takes the test and the result is 0.08% or more, the police officer will revoke the person's driver license immediately under the terms of a certain state statute, known as the Implied Consent law. The officer will issue the driver a document entitled "Notice and Order of Revocation." If the driver had a valid license at the time if the incident, this document will also act as a seven-day temporary driver's license. The seven-day driver license is valid for full driving privileges until midnight on the seventh day after it was issued, not counting the day it was actually issued. The license revocation period begins when the seven-day temporary license expires. The lengths of driver license revocation periods under different circumstances are summarized below. Keep in mind that the term "prior offense" means not only a previous DUI conviction, but also a previous alcohol-related driver's license revocation even if the incident did not result in a DUI conviction.
