If you have lost your license following a DUI you probably feel like your life has been put in disarray. Losing a license can upend your entire way of living. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, it's estimated that 11.7 million people drove under the influence of selected illicit drugs in the last year. If you have had your license suspended you will no longer be able to get back and forth to work or school as you once could. Losing a license will take a toll on your independence. There are ways, however, to get your license reinstated after a DUI. DOEP classes can help. Let's learn more about your options.
It will be necessary that you attend all legal hearings concerning your license. At these hearings, you or your lawyer will be able to present your case before the judge. You will want to follow your lawyer's advice concerning all procedures and proceedings during this time.
You will likely wind up with some fines or fees following the suspension of your license. You will need to pay all of these fees. This shows the court that you know you did wrong and you are willing to make amends for your wrongdoing. Acting like the DUI wasn't your fault or that you don't deserve any kind of punishment will not help you.
This may be tough to hear, but you will need to finish up the time of your required suspension. The length of time varies considering your charges. During this time, you should attend DOEP classes. These classes may be required by the court or it may be something you opt to do to show the court you are serious about being a good driver from now on.
It will be necessary that you talk with insurance companies to get new coverage. You will need to get form SR-22 completed which shows the court you did get new insurance coverage. This will go a long way to showing the court you are serious.
Once you have worked your way through all of these steps, you will be eligible to apply for reinstatement of your license. You can do this at the DMV office. If you are unsure of the best ways to ensure you get your license back, you can talk with a DUI lawyer. These professionals will be able to offer you expert advice on this topic.
