Factors that Influence License Restoration

• If you have received two DUIs (sometimes called DWI) in a seven year period, the result will most certainly be a suspended drivers license. Through the drivers license appeal division you may be able to have your license restored if you can prove that you have been alcohol free for a period of one year.
• For those who have received three or more DUIs in a lifetime, the matter becomes a felony and the result is revocation of license. In this case, in order to have your license restored, you must wait five years. This must be a period of total abstinence and you must be able to show that there is a reasonable likelihood that you will remain alcohol free in the future.
