License suspension
A DWI arrest triggers not only a criminal case, but also an administrative case against the driver. If you were arrested for DWI, DPs will seek to suspend your license- meaning you cannot drive at all- for no less than 90 days and as much as 6 months, depending upon the facts in your case.
Driver’s License Restrictions The restrictions that occur either from refusing to blow or failing an intoxylizer test result in a dimunation of your driver’s license. While you will be able to obtain an occupational license with verification of your employment and class schedule, the bigger concern is that while you are in college, there are better things you should be doing than having to deal with a restricted driver’s license – implications on your social life and getting your other needs met having to operate for six months on a pretty rigid schedule. At the worst, 1/8 of your college career would be spent without the freedom of unrestricted driving.
