Has your driver’s license been revoked?
This can happen for several reasons, including conviction for driving on a suspended license, for attaining multiple DUIs or a number of points for offenses. A license revocation should be taken seriously as you face the possibility of not ever having your driver’s license reinstated. Often, a judge can determine whether or not to suspend your license as it is a discretionary matter, so it is best to have an experienced and knowledgeable attorney on your side when you are facing a license suspension or revocation. In addition, you can face an administrative license suspension if you are legitimately stopped and chemical testing shows a blood alcohol concentration level of at least .08%.
It is important to request a hearing with the New Mexico Department of Motor Vehicles within 10 days of being charged with a DWI to save your driver’s license after an arrest.
Has your administrative license been revoked?
In most states, under implied consent laws, if you refuse a blood or breath test over .08 when there has been a proper stop of your vehicle, you could have your license suspended or revoked, also called an administrative revocation.
