Out of State Motorists
It’s not uncommon for vacationers to visit Florida and get arrested for DUI. Our firm wants to prevent you from coming down on vacation and going back on probation. Even though you may be licensed in Ohio, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Indiana, or some state other than Florida, if you are arrested for DUI in Florida the procedures used by law enforcement are the same as those motorists that are licensed in Florida. Remember, that when you are arrested for DUI in Florida your ability to challenge your driver’s license is required within 10 days of your arrest. Even though you may be licensed out of state, your home state may become aware of your DUI arrest. DMV offices share information between states according to a federal compact referred to as the National Driver Registry. Call our office immediately so we can explain the process to you and discuss any legal defenses. Our office is open on the weekends to handle to your emergency phone calls.
