Georgia DUI License Suspension Hearing

Did you know that if you are arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in the state of Georgia, your driver’s license will automatically be suspended? In fact, under state law, being arrested for drinking and driving will not only result in criminal charges being filed against you, but also administrative charges. This means your case will be reviewed by two very different court systems, with the first proceeding typically being a Georgia DUI license suspension hearing.

As you can probably guess, the purpose of a license suspension hearing is to determine whether your driving privileges should be revoked as a result of your arrest. Unlike a criminal trial, which is reviewed by a judge and/or jury, the Department of Driver Services (DDS) will determine whether your driver’s license should be temporarily suspended or not.

Fortunately, although being arrested for DUI will automatically result in a license suspension, you have the opportunity to avoid this penalty by requesting an appeal with the DDS. If you can provide a valid legal reason for challenging your arrest, your driving privileges may remain in effect.

To avoid losing your license, you must request an appeal hearing within ten days after your arrest—otherwise, your driving privileges will be suspended. In addition to this suspension, you will also face criminal penalties for driving under the influence, such as fines, community service, probation, and/or a jail sentence.
