They are only going a few minutes down the road and they feel they are absolutely fine to take the wheel again.

Unluckily, however, they end up in being apprehended by police. This is applied by conducting three regular field sobriety tests; after which the police offer arrests the individual for a suspected DUI. The next thing they know, they are handcuffed in the back of a police car.

Does A DUI Affect Your Ability to Drive If You Get One in Another State?

With regard to the matters of DUI offenses whether in your resident state or any other state, there is very high likelihood that your driving privileges may be revoked. Some states’ laws allow a suspension based on the Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) on the grounds of the state you are arrested in relation to the offence committed. This means that, even if you are charged with a DUI in one state and leave for another state, when you try to apply for a license or renew an existing one your record shall show the DUI charge into consideration.

When a DMV suspends a driver’s license, most states permit him or her to appeal the suspension at the suspension hearing. One however needs to realize that these changes have to happen most often within the first days, after a person was arrested and or charged as some of the states have set time constraints beyond which such a person cannot challenge their driver license suspensions through this process.

If you never ask for such a hearing or you never appeal within the respective time period, then any possible suspension is sure to become an indefinite one and will deny you the ability to drive motor vehicles legally and safely until your license and driving privileges have been fully addressed.
