Driving While Under the Influence (DUI)
An arrest for Vehicle Code Section 23152,(a) driving while under the influence of alcohol or (b) driving with a blood alcohol content greater than .08, will result in two actions: Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) action, and Court action.
The California DMV can suspend, revoke or restrict your privilege to drive a motor vehicle in California. The DMV can require you to enroll and complete DUI classes upon a conviction. A driving privilege suspension stemming from a DUI arrest can range from four months to one year depending on whether or not a chemical test was voluntarily taken. If you resisted, DMV can suspend your license for one year. If you did not, the suspension will be four months as long as you are over 21 years of age. A DUI conviction for an underage drinker can result in completely different consequences. Attorney Ermila A. Martinez offers additional valuable information through her social media.
