What sorts of sobriety tests are done during a DUI stop?
In a DUI stop, you may have to take several sobriety tests. Field sobriety tests could involve activities like counting backward, walking a straight line, or standing on one leg. Additionally, you might be subjected to chemical tests like a preliminary breath test (PBT) or a blood test. Occasionally, a urine test could be requested.

How does one restore a driver's license after a DUI?
If your license was suspended, it gets reinstated after the penalty period. However, for revoked licenses, you need to reapply through the Office of Hearings and Administrative Oversight (OHAO), the Driver’s License Appeals Division (DLAD), or Driver’s Assessment Appeals (DAAD). If the DLAD/DAAD decision is unsatisfactory, you can appeal to the circuit court.

How long is a DUI kept on your record?
A DUI conviction remains on your record indefinitely. While DUIs typically fall off your Driving Record over time, 1st and 2nd Offense DUIs are classified as misdemeanor crimes, and a 3rd Offense is a felony. As criminal convictions, these offenses remain permanently on your Criminal Record. Hence, a DUI conviction will lead to a Criminal Record if you don't already have one, and DUIs cannot be expunged from your record.
