A: If you refused, it is a 270 day suspension for a first refusal and a 2 year suspension for a second refusal. The suspension begins the 46th day after your arrest. When the suspension is over, you must go to the MVA to get reinstated. Your driving record will tell you if you are eligible for reinstatement.

If you filed for a hearing or elected the ignition interlock for one year, you may be able to avoid a suspension.

In addition, you face the DUI charges in court. If you have not received a court date, check Maryland Judiciary Case Search to see if you missed a court date. If you did miss the court date, there will be a warrant. An attorney can probably get the warrant recalled and your case set for trial.
