- Soon after your arrest you will be arraigned before a Judge and your license will be immediately suspended by the court.
- If you’ve been drinking in any capacity and are under the age of 21, you are subject to New York State’s “Zero Tolerance Law” … which subjects you to harsher penalties including the revocation of your right to drive for one year or until you turn 21, whichever is longer.
- Do not drive if your license has been taken away … you could be subject to jail time and significant fines. There are ways to fight to protect your drivers license …before it gets taken away. And ways to restore it if it does get suspended or revoked.
