We know that navigating a DUI can be overwhelming. Understanding the requirements and process after an alcohol related driving offense in Arizona is an important step to getting back on the road. We’ve put together some general information to help you get started.
The Arizona Department of Public Safety website states a clear definition of DUI:
According to the Arizona Motor Vehicle Division, a BAC of .15 or higher is considered an “Extreme DUI” in Arizona, meaning you’ll often be required to serve a jail sentence and pay heavier fines. Penalties are increased for an “Aggravated DUI,” which applies to circumstances such as getting a DUI with an already-suspended license or with a person under age 15 in the car.
According to the Arizona Motor Vehicle Division, you’ll need to complete certain conditions to get your license reinstated. These might include, but aren’t limited to:
When you’re ready to apply for reinstatement of your Arizona driver’s license, you’ll need to fill out a revocation application and re-apply at an Arizona MVD location. In the meantime, you may be able to apply for a Special Ignition Interlock Restricted Driver’s License (SIIRDL), which could allow you to maintain driving privileges during your suspension, so long as you comply with the State’s requirements.
