Arizona DWI Laws and Drunk Driving Information

If you have been arrested for Driving Under the Influence in Arizona you will have to undergo two separate proceedings. One is a criminal proceeding for the DWI offense that is resolved in a courtroom. The other is a civil proceeding that will determine whether or not you can keep your drivers' license. That hearing is done through the Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles.

You may be charged with Arizona DWI even if you do not submit to a breath, blood or urine test. You may also be arrested if the results of a blood/breath alcohol test are under the legal limit of .08%.

If you are an Arizona resident and your BAC test results indicate a result of .08% or higher, the police will seize your Arizona driver license and issue a temporary license that is valid for only 15 days. During those 15 days you can request a hearing to determine if you are eligible for an additional temporary license for work purposes.

If you are from out of state, the police cannot seize your driver's license. You will be served with a notice of suspension of your privilege to drive in Arizona. The suspension will take effect 15 days after being served the notice unless you request a hearing for a temporary license.

It is important to hire an experienced Arizona DWI attorney to help you with all the details of your case.
