What to do after getting a DUI in California? This question can be overwhelming and confusing. Clear2DriveTM is here to clear things up for you! Let us help get you back on the road.
In California you are legally intoxicated if your Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level is 0.08 or higher. A DUI can still be charged at a lower BAC if you have a commercial driver license (CDL), are underaged, or if this is a repeat offense. At the time of arrest the CA police officer will give you a 30 day temporary driver’s license. If you refuse to submit to or fail a blood or breath test you could receive a one to three year suspension or revocation. See our helpful chart below for more information.
We have state specialists standing by to help you navigate California DMV forms and to contact the California Mandatory Actions Unit (MAU) on your behalf. The difference is clear with Clear2DriveTM
