What Are The Penalties For A DUI In Georgia?
Georgia enforces strict penalties for DUI convictions. A first offense may result in fines, license suspension, mandatory education requirements and possible jail time. Repeat offenses carry harsher penalties, including longer suspensions, increased fines and extended incarceration. A conviction can also lead to higher insurance rates and career consequences.
Building a strong DUI defense with our legal support can reduce the associated penalties and help safeguard your future.
What Happens If You Refuse To Take A DUI Test In Georgia?
Under Georgia’s latest updates to its implied consent laws, refusing a chemical sobriety test as required can result in automatic license suspension and may be used as evidence against you. While refusal may seem strategic, it often complicates legal proceedings and can even lead to additional consequences.
If you refused a DUI test, seeking legal counsel immediately is critical. An attorney can evaluate your options and help you protect your rights.
What Is Form 1205?
Form DDS-1205 is a critical document issued after a DUI arrest in Georgia. It serves as a notification of pending license suspension and provides a temporary driving permit, typically valid for 30 days. This form is essential for individuals seeking to challenge a license suspension, as it outlines the steps required to request a hearing.
If you have received a DDS-1205 form, acting quickly is crucial. You have a limited window to contest your suspension and protect your driving privileges.
