Driving Under Alcohol Restraint in Colorado

Denver DUI Attorney

Driving Under Alcohol Restraint

There are serious penalties in Colorado for driving under restraint based on an alcohol related revocation. A sentence for a conviction includes mandatory jail time, steep fines, and the automatic extension of your driver’s license revocation.

In Colorado, the penalties for driving under restraint for an alcohol related conviction are severe. If convicted for a first offense, you face a mandatory jail sentence from 30 days to a year and up to a $1,000 fine. For a second offense, you face at least 90 days to two years in jail, and up to a $3,000 fine.

In addition to the sentences outlined above, a conviction will lead to a habitual traffic offender strike on your driving record. Accumulating three habitual strikes in a certain period of time will make you a habitual traffic offender, which can lead to a felony charge if driving in certain situations.

If you are charged with driving under restraint for an alcohol related restraint in Colorado, the services of an experienced Denver traffic attorney can be invaluable. Not only can an experienced criminal defense attorney explore defenses to your case, such as the notice requirements or whether the traffic stop was legal, a skilled defense lawyer can negotiate with the prosecutor in an effort to save your driving privileges and keep you out of jail.
