About Your TX License
Immediately following an arrest for driving while intoxicated in Hunt County the Texas Department of Public Safety will file a civil case against you seeking the suspension of your driver's license. This is a separate case from the criminal charges that are addressed in a court of law. In fact, the DWI charges could be dropped and you still could lose your license.
You have the right to challenge the license suspension by requesting an ALR or Administrative License Revocation hearing. You must request a hearing within 15 days of the date of your arrest or you will automatically lose your license.
The hearing is very complicated, and evidence and testimony will be presented against you. Having legal guidance can improve the chances of keeping you driving privileges. Hunt County DWI Attorneys Holmes & Moore provide complete drunk driving defense, including assistance with your license suspension. Contact them for immediate help.
Penalties for TX DWI
Even a first offense for drunk driving in Hunt County can lead to fines, court costs, jail and loss of license. A conviction would mean loss of auto insurance or the requirement of purchasing expensive SR-22 insurance. As part of a driver's responsibility law, the DPS levies a fine of $1000 per year for three years when renewing your driver's license.
The extent of the penalties increase if you caused an accident with injury, have any prior alcohol related traffic offenses or had a very high blood alcohol content at the time of your arrest. A third DWI offense in Texas is filed as a felony. With a criminal arrest record you could have difficulties finding or keeping a job. You may be restricted from opening a credit account.
The long-term effects of being found guilty of driving while intoxicated in Texas make it obvious that you should fight the charges filed against you. Mistakes may have been made by the arresting officer and breath or blood testing equipment may not have been properly calibrated. You may even have been charged with DWI when your BAC was below the legal limit of .08%.
