DUI / DWI Law Answers

According to Florida DUI law, your license will be suspended as of the arrest date for 6 months for the first offense and one year for any other offense of DUBAL.  You will be given a 10-day permit on the date of the arrest.  Once the permit has expired, then 30 days of the suspension must be served before the driver is eligible to apply for a hardship license.  You will be eligible for a hardship license on the first and any consecutive suspension, unless you have been convicted of a DUI in Florida two or more times.  Under the Florida DUI law, you must provide proof of enrollment in a driving under the influence school to the Administrative Reviews Office for consideration for a hardship license.  If given approval to reinstate early for hardship, you must present this approval to the driver license office.  At the time of reinstatement, whether for a hardship license or a full license, you must take the required examination, and pay $115 administrative fee and $35 reinstatement fee and any license fee required.  Proof of liability insurance on the arrest date will be required or proof of liability coverage and a $15 reinstatement fee will be required.
