Q: If I have a DUI in Michigan and move to Arizona will the dui follow? I know Michigan does not participate in the NDR
I lived in Arizona before I had gotten the DUI in Michigan and I believe the license in Arizona is still valid
A:
Best way to confirm whether or not Arizona Department of Transportation knows about your Michigan DUI is to call them and ask. You can also easily check the status of your Arizona driver license/driving privilege at AZMVDNOW.gov.
The DUI may not follow you in the sense of having license restrictions on your Arizona driving privileges, however, if you were to get another DUI in Arizona, your prior Michigan DUI could be used to aggravate the charges or the sentence.
