Question:
Am I eligible for a restricted license?
On Location DUI School?
Some states require you attend DUI school on location, but what can you do if your license has already been suspended or revoked? In state that do not have adequate forms of public transportation, you may be eligible for a hardship driver's license or restricted license. This license may permit you to drive to and from DUI class only, or possibly back and forth to work as well. Any other use is usually forbidden; you can't use this restricted license for any other purpose.
Have your lawyer look into whether you are eligible for such a license. A restricted license may already be a part of your first DUI probation terms, but if not, get in touch with the DMV right away to learn what you can do.
