Legal Question in DUI Law in New Jersey
I am 8 years into a 10 year loss of my drivers license for a DWI, in NJ. I have been sober for these 8 years. I will be having a very difficult time for 3 months coming up very soon. My mother was my transportation and a co-worker, but she is going in for heart surgery and I will not have any transportation to work. I work part time and my shifts are different almost everyday. Is there a way that I could get a provisional license for at least 3 months so I can get back and forth to work. I do not make a lot of money so I would not be able to afford a taxi on a daily basis. All I would like is a 3 or 4 month provisional license for work.

Hi unfortunately there are no provisional licenses allowed the New Jersey. Although difficult I would highly suggest that you do not drive until you license is reinstated as the penalties for driving as a result of the DUI are very severe including possible jail time and additional loss of license
