But if you get a job --you have to go file a motion to amend restricted license to add that to your restricted license...if you just start driving to new job without... Read more »
Ok I have a restricted license and asap made me pay them 400 just for a referral to this outpatient treatment. Well I was told twice a week I must attend. The intake lady did my intake and she filled in the answers over video chat. I asked her can I do the one hr class and do 4 weeks. Well she... Read more »
Unfortunately, ASAP has the control here. You are in the position of being at their mercy. Though the program should potentially be tailored to more individual needs as they say they are doing, most people are treated very similar and have to go through the same amount of time for their courses....

The answers to the interrogatories asked, the documents subject to a document request, the admissions that the parties make in response to requests, the oral answers to depositions of parties and witnesses, and the documents and things that are sought to be examined.

On my driving record it says I killed someone on a dui. I got a dui but I never killed anyone. What can I do to get it removed? Can I sue someone about this they are making me do a treatment session due to this.
This is may have been a clerical error and may be corrected by contacting the clerk of the court in which you were convicted.
The law goes into effect on July 1st, and my first intake appointment isn’t until May 12
Absolutely, alcohol is also legal but the condition of your ASAP supervision requires no drugs and no alcohol.
It depends on if the court required you to or if DMV requires you to. The court can tell you that its not required but the DMV is a separate entity and can make you take ASAP related to their requirements. If neither has ordered you to, then you are free to go.
You should go to the Virginia DMV and get a "compliance summary" which will tell you what you need to do to get your license reinstated.
I was able to get my license reinstated as early as possible as I completed everything the courts required well before I was able to get my license reinstated. I thought it only stayed on my driving record for 7 years but everything I see now says it's 11 years. This case was in Chesapeake, VA... Read more »
A DWI in Virginia stays on your driving record for 11 years. Unfortunately as the law is currently it stays on your criminal record forever. There are efforts in the legislature to reform the current system but as it is now it cannot be removed from a criminal record.
Fiance received a ruling of good behavior for 2 years and the judge made the decision on June 1st. Well my fiance got a dwi while he was awaiting trial for the domestic violence. IF the judge made the ruling of 2 years good behavior, can the judge use the dwi against him, or would it even count if... Read more »
Typically, an offense that occurred before the judge's order will not violate the "general good behavior" order.
My car was broke down and i was waiting for my boss to come and i got a Dui. This happened 15 yrs ago. Do i still need to go to classes and have the interlock installed on my car
If you never attended ASAP the DMV will require you to do so in order to get your license reinstated. The best thing to do is to contact the DMV for a compliance summary.
I was also told I'd have to have a breathalyzer installed in my vehicle for at least 6 months. Last year or so I asked for a transcript of my charges to ask the D.M.V. what I need to to start getting my licenses reinstated. Since the breathalyzer wasn't present on my transcript would I...

In classic legal form the answer is it depends. If the court didn’t order you to have the interlock in your vehicle and you simply walked without driving during your suspension time you may be able to simply finish the ASAP course and pay your reinstatement fee to get your license back.
Unfortunately the VA DMV will require you to complete ASAP in order to have your license reinstated.
I have took the required Dui and counseling but the instructor will not sign off on my licence. She never called me in to take the final drug test or anything. I was in a drug program which was seperate from my classes but in the same building but she used my drug test from the program instead of... Read more »
This may depend on how West Va enters your information into their DMV system and where you got your DUI. But it would be easier if you transfer your license to VA BEFORE you WVa license expires.
The short answer is yes. When you’re convicted of a DUI in Virginia your privilege to operate any “motor vehicle” is suspended. As a result, you are prohibited from operating any vehicle with an engine including a boat.
You do not have to be convicted but sometimes this is the way that the probation officer will do it as long as you have let them know about the arrest. You are technically not in violation until you are convicted if the arrest is reported to probation as well.
found out when i called to get proof I had taken course to take to DMV. When I took VASAP, had no permanent addy and was living with various friends - no car, and no phone. Found out later someone called my dad to say there was a finding (I was 25 at time)- and asked him to have me call them.... Read more »
You just need to own up to it and if there is something outstanding get it taken care of. Hire a lawyer to go with you if possible and let them deal with getting you the best outcome possible. Good luck.
3 DUIs 6 years ago. Judge in Albemarle won't reinstate me. Army/Iraq veteran! I already petitioned and did pretrial with VASAP. Judge said no but that I could reset the docket as she didn't even know I'd be there that day.
I am not certain what you are trying to say. Is the issue getting your driving privileges reinstated? If so, you should hire a local experienced criminal defense attorney to help you. The first step is to comply with ASAP's requirements regarding getting your privileges reinstated.... Read more »
I got pulled over going 45 in a thirty. I had several beers and thought I did well on sobriety test. I consented to a breathalyzer because I thought I wasn't over. I blew .14 or something. I got arrested and ge tried to get me to submit another breathalyzer back at police station but I... Read more »
What city were you arrested in? Unfortunately, you cannot make an agreement where you will not be assessed points. A DUI conviction not only carries with it demerit points but a 12 month license suspension, a requirement for ignition interlock, alcohol monitoring through ASAP and even a possibility... Read more »
And I blew a 0.10 on the breathalyzer. I'm wondering how screwed I am. Ps: I'm in the military. I bought an attourney for both occasions and I'm hoping for the best.
You'll probably go to jail for a bit and get a suspended license.
The answer truly is it depends. The facts from your underlying DUI will come into play, along with the facts of this offense. It is a class one misdemeanor and you can be sentenced to up to 12mos in jail and up to a $2500 fine. If you had a good behavior period on your underlying DUI, this could... Read more »
