Re: Petition for Administrative Hearing

The administrative hearing is separate from the criminal charge. The Department of Motor Vehicles can administratively revoke your license for 90 days on the first DUI.

If you get out of the DUI in criminal court but blow off the administrative hearing, then you still cannot drive. You need to discuss your options with an attorney.
