Alcohol Screening Arizona

Counseling is important, and as part of your sentence or probation you are required to complete all sessions.  Failure to adhere to the court ordered requirements may result in increased penalties and probation violations.  Additionally, many state driving agencies will not re-issue a driving license or permit until the counseling conditions have been properly fulfilled.

If you are suffering from an alcohol or substance abuse problem, it is highly recommended that you seek help. For help with your questions and concerns regarding any of these programs, contact an experienced attorney in your area for information.

Alcohol Screening Arizona

It is not uncommon for a defense attorney to advise clients to attend AA meetings or other alcohol abuse counseling while their cases are still pending. The fees for alcohol screening and substance abuse programs vary.  Defendants are usually required to pay any costs in addition to any court fines imposed. Some states allow the court fines to be reduced or offset by the cost of substance abuse counseling.

Alcohol Screening Arizona

The purpose of these screening and counseling laws is simple – without some sort of rehabilitative help, those suffering from addictions are more likely to be repeat offenders.  And without first screening each person individually, the right amount of treatment cannot be given.  Without screening or counseling, imposing monetary or even jail sentences are not always enough to deter future misconduct.  Instead, alcohol abuse counseling programs to rehabilitate may be the better option.  That’s not to say you will not have to serve time in jail or pay fines.  Some combination of abuse treatment, house arrest, and minimum mandatory jail time and fines will still be imposed.

Alcohol Screenings Arizona

Nearly every state has some form of court ordered alcohol or substance abuse counseling that is required for DUI offenders.  The rules for screening and counseling vary from state to state. The majority of states require first time and/or repeat offenders to enroll in some kind of substance abuse treatment program.  Such programs are usually part of probation or parole conditions.  To determine what level of counseling is appropriate for individual offenders, some state statutes also impose a mandatory substance abuse screening, a process oftendone prior to sentencing.

Arizona DUI Revocation Packet

The Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) will suspend your license for a variety of reasons. These can include:

  • Failure to pay civil penalties for traffic violations, moving violations, or speeding tickets.
  • Being at fault in an accident that causes serious injury or death to another person.
  • Violating traffic laws so often that the state considers you to have “disrespect for traffic laws and a disregard for the safety of other persons.”
  • Using a driver’s license illegally.

Suspensions for these types of offenses can last from months to years, depending on the severity of the violation.

Revocation Investigation Packet

As with all states, Arizona considers driving to be a privilege and reserves the right to suspend or revoke your license. However, this type of punishment is typically reserved for dangerous drivers or individuals who have repeatedly violated traffic laws and are considered a public safety risk. Also for people who have obtained a DUI or have been driving under the influence of drugs.

The main difference between a license suspension and a revocation is that license suspensions have definite start and end dates. With a revocation, your license is taken completely away.

Revocation Investigation Packet

 Your driver license may be revoked when it is determined that you do not possess the physical, mental, or other qualifications necessary to operate a motor vehicle safely.  A revocation removes your privilege to drive for a minimum period of one or five years and is required by law upon conviction of certain driving offenses.

Once your revocation period has ended, your driving privilege will remain revoked until you attend a Driver Assessment reexamination.  At this reexamination, you will be required to provide proof that the condition that caused your revocation is no longer present.  Depending on the reason for revocation, you may be required to submit a substance abuse evaluation form, evidence of sobriety, or a physician’s statement of examination.  A written, vision, and on road performance test may also be required.  If you are approved for re-licensure, you may be required to pay the appropriate licensing and reinstatement fees.
