Driver’s licenses: revocation

Beginning January 1, 2031, people convicted of an injury-causing DUI after four qualifying convictions within 10 years face a lengthy loss of driving privileges and strict conditions for restricted driving.

What the law does ​

• Suspends driving privileges for 72 months after a conviction for an injury-causing DUI when the offense follows four or more qualifying convictions within 10 years.
• Requires proof of financial responsibility and completion of a qualifying DUI program before full driving privileges can be reinstated.
• Allows a person to seek a restricted license after 12 months if they meet program, insurance, fee, and ignition-interlock requirements.
• Requires restricted-license holders to maintain a certified ignition interlock device for 72 months.

Who it affects ​

• Drivers convicted of an injury-causing DUI who have four or more qualifying alcohol- or drug-related driving convictions within the prior 10 years.
• DUI program providers and drivers seeking restricted licenses after the suspension begins.

Context ​

The law becomes operative January 1, 2031.
