To get your license back after a DUI, you need to follow the reinstatement process for your state. There are a few steps you can expect regardless of where you live, such as completing a suspension period and taking an educational course. Following a few basic guidelines can help you get back on the road if you lose your license due to a DUI.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some drivers will need to have an <\/span>SR-22 certificate<\/span><\/a> on file with their local DMV before they can get their driving privileges reinstated.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Understanding Your License Status<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Before going through the reinstatement process, ensure you understand your license\u2019s status. You can lose access to your driving privileges in two ways: suspension and revocation.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Suspension occurs for a set period of time, after which you\u2019ll be eligible for <\/span>reinstatement<\/span><\/a>. Suspension is common for first-time offenders. Revocation happens when the courts strip you of your license completely. You\u2019ll have to apply anew to drive again. If your license has been revoked, going through the application process again is typically more complex than reinstating a suspended license.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Complete the Revocation Period<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

First, wait out your revocation or suspension period. Depending on your situation, you may have to wait months or even years to reinstate your license. The court will inform you of how long your suspension will last. This waiting period gives you time to complete any other requirements for reinstatement. <\/span>Driving without a valid license<\/span><\/a> is a crime, so take your suspension period seriously.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Complete a DUI Education Course<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of the common conditions for getting your driving privileges back is completing a <\/span>DUI education course<\/span><\/a>. This program teaches you the dangers of driving under the influence, helping create better driving habits. You may also be required to complete specific courses about drug or alcohol safety, depending on the nature of your offense. The court may require you to complete your DUI course according to a specific timeline, so follow any deadlines to avoid delays.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n
