When exactly do you lose your license for a DUI?

[stevek173]

She says she has her arraignment for it in a week but doesn't think she is losing her license then

When I got mine it was one visit to court where I had to surrender my license

Is there more than 1 trip to court now?

I am confused.

 

[BGS 9.5]

Varies by state, but I highly doubt there is a grace period, unless 1 or 2 days....

in utah you have 2 different hearings

DMV hearing in regards to ur license

court hearing for the charges

it is a long process

Don't drink and drive and you don't have to worry about it. When you do the crime you do the time.

 

[stevek173]

OK ty I never got one out here only in NJ so that's how it worked there. Maybe she is right I'm sure her lawyer is walking her through it. This is really going to be rough on her and not easy for me is all I can say but I am in it to win it.

You're going to get a Business Purposes Only DL right?

She will be on work release and I dunno about the business DL I hope she can

 

[RayRay]

business dl. is a given i would imagine... stevies, you barely know this broad and only spend a few days a month with her... besides hearing her bitch about it, why would it possibly be rough on you?

Because I will be driving her back and forth from work to prison while she is incarcerated

and I am probably going to be helping with the kids

and she is going to hate it in jail and I will be consoling her

and i am likely not going home for Christmas so I can be there for her

RR did you return my trash can?

She is resting now in the hospital. Her Dad told her "Steve should come up, you are his responsibility now" I said OK..

 

[kato]

and then told her kid to shut the fuck up


rule with an iron fist steve(s)

 

[stevek173]

Wait I feel like an oxymoron now.

Or just a moron.

 

[Archie]

Steve, are you going to be babysitting? how are you gonna be helping with the kids? what jail would this broad be going to? I'm familiar with some Pa prisons

arraignment is when you go and they tell you what you are charged with and you make your plea, guilty, not guilty, nolo, etc...

here they take your license when your arrested, the DUI ticket serves as a temporary license until the state sends the formal papers.

in Illinois I guess they take your license away right when you get pulled over.... even when you get a fucking speed ticket. I've happy that i've never gotten a ticket here, I mean what the fuck do you do if you get pulled over on the way to the airport?

Wow how is that legal?

 

[Archie]

I mean they physically take your ID, you don't lose the ability to drive. I think maybe they give you a piece of paper that says you are "licensed" but you don't physically have your ID. I guess they did it to make sure that people followed through with paying fines/showing up for court.... that is how you get your ID back

When I was in college in Illinois they took your DL for a traffic violation and you get it back when you go to court and the judge decides if you are guilty or not. It's like a collateral that you will appear in court.
