Frequently Asked Questions in Nevada DUI Cases

1. Will I be able to get my case dismissed because I was not read my rights?
   
   Probably not. But if you were interrogated after being placed in custody, your statements cannot be used against you.
   
   
2. Will I go to jail?
   
   An experienced attorney may be able to keep you out.



3. I had two alcohol offenses when I was younger. What will happen to my license if I have a third conviction?
   
   If you were convicted of 2 previous DUIs or your license was revoked twice before, your license will be revoked for three years, unless you can win the DMV haring.
   
   
4. I have three DUIs within seven years, so what will become of my license?
   
   It will be automatically revoked for 3 years, and you are looking at a non-probationable felony conviction.
   
   
5. How many hours of alcohol classes will I have to take?
   
   Plan on at least 8 hours of "DUI school," either 4 two hour or 1 eight hour session. If your BAC is 1.8 or higher, you may be required to obtain a BADA (Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Abuse) evaluation and further counseling (AA or NA), as ordered by the court. The higher your BAC, the more hours you will have to take.
   
   
6. What will happen if I do not complete the classes or public service ordered by the Court?
   
   You will go to jail.
   
   
7. I lost my Nevada license. May I obtain a license in another state?
   
   In most cases, no.
   
   
8. If I obtain an international driver's license, may I drive in Nevada, even though my Nevada license is revoked?
   
   No.
   
   
9. Am I a bad person, because I was arrested for DUI?
   
   No, but you are well advised to never, never smell like alcohol while behind the wheel. You do not need to feel humiliated .
   
   
10. What if I burped within twenty minutes of blowing?
    
    The breath machine may have read alcohol from your stomach rather than you lungs. The result may be incorrect. A similar problem occurs with dentures.
