Colorado License Suspension Issues
Implied Consent Laws apply to all drivers who operate a motor vehicle in Colorado. Implied consent laws requires drivers to submit to chemical testing if the driver is arrested for a lawfully DUI. If the driver refuses to submit to chemical testing, the driver will lose their driving privileges. Any refusal to submit to chemical testing will be admissible in any criminal proceeding. First offenders may be eligible for a hardship after 30 days of the suspension under certain circumstances.
The length your license suspension depends upon certain factors, such as is a first-offense or multiple-offense DUI, and whether a chemical test was given or whether it is a refusal case. A refusal case is a term that the driver refused to submit to chemical testing. If you refuse, the suspension is 1 year; Second offense refusal is a 2 year revocation; and Third offense refusal is a 3 year license revocation.
If you submit to chemical testing and fail the test, the suspension is 30 days; Second offense refusal is a 6 month; and Third offense is a 1 year license revocation. There is an Administrative License Revocation Process. The Department of Revenue will determine whether your license is subject to suspension and will notify you in writing. You have 7 days to request a hearing after receiving notice from the Department of Revenue. It is vital to contact your Local DUI Attorney.
