Driver’s License Suspension in San Diego
[/title]
Get help from our experienced DUI defense attorneys!
When a California driver is arrested for drunk driving, their driver’s license is automatically suspended after 30 days. You will be given a temporary license in many cases that is good for 30 days. The driver has ten days to contest the suspension with the DMV for a hearing called ‘Administration License Suspension’ in order to receive an extension of a temporary license.
The DMV Hearing
A license suspension is an ‘Administrative Sanction’ and not a punishment hearing. It has no effect on criminal proceedings. Due to many cases at the DMV, the hearing could be postponed for as much as thirty days. This can be a tedious and confusing procedure. Most people have no idea what to present at any DMV hearing to avoid the loss of their driver’s license, so it’s important that you enlist the help of a knowledgeable lawyer.
