License Restrictions

An Arizona DUI conviction can be accompanied by harsh penalties. Jail time, fines, and a period of probation are all at risk. License restrictions are also a common punishment given to those found guilty of driving under the influence.

If you have been arrested with driving while impaired or a blood alcohol content exceeding .08%, you may be facing long-term license restrictions. An Arizona DUI attorney can help you to vigorously defend your case. Contact a DUI lawyer Thompson & Volquardsen, P.C., today by calling 602-510-9999.

Forms of License Restrictions

License suspensions are the most severe form of license restrictions. If you are a second time offender, or haven been accused of an extreme DUI or felony, a 90 day to 2 year license suspension is at risk. Throughout that time, you will be unable to legally operate a motor vehicle. Fortunately, a skilled attorney may be able to lessen this suspension to 30 to 60 days, especially if you did not cause injuries or an accident.

Instead of a license suspension, you may only receive restrictions put on your license for a specific amount of time. You may be restricted to only driving when going to and from work, doctor’s appointments, or court-ordered or suggested counseling and alcohol programs. Fighting to lessen a sentence to a restricted license can allow you to resume the essential activities of your everyday life.
