Will I Lose My License After a DUI? - Anna R. Yum

From Law Offices of Anna R. Yum - Will I Lose My License After a DUI? explains how a San Diego DUI arrest can put driving privileges at risk through both the California DMV’s Administrative Per Se process and a separate conviction-based suspension in criminal court. This episode covers why the 10-day DMV hearing deadline matters, how the 30-day temporary license works, and what drivers should know about BAC results, chemical tests, and alleged refusals.

The discussion breaks down first-offense DUI suspension timelines, including a 4-month APS suspension for drivers 21 or older with a BAC of 0.08% or higher, a 6-month conviction-based DMV suspension after a DUI conviction, and a possible 10-month suspension when a 9-month DUI program is required for cases involving a BAC of 0.20% or higher or other qualifying facts. It also explains different thresholds for drivers under 21, commercial drivers, and drivers on DUI probation.

Listeners will learn about restricted-license options in California, including the IID restricted license and the standard Employment/Treatment Program restriction. The episode also covers ignition interlock devices, SR-22 filings, DUI program enrollment, DMV fees, wet reckless and dry reckless reductions, California Vehicle Code § 13353, and why a first post-arrest chemical-test refusal can result in a 1-year suspension with no restricted-license option.

Attorney Anna R. Yum, founder of the Law Offices of Anna R. Yum, brings her background as a former Riverside County Deputy District Attorney to the conversation, along with experience in jury trials, bench trials, and DUI defense in San Diego.
