by Collin County DWI attorney Troy Burleson
1. If your blood alcohol concentration was over the legal limit or you refused a test, you may not be able to drive at all for a long period of time;
2. If you refused a breath test, your license may be suspended for 6 months (180 days);
3. If you submitted to a breath test and you were over .08, then your license may be suspended for 3 months (90 days).
4. Keep in mind: If your license is suspended, you may be granted an occupational license
5. HOWEVER: If you have prior DWI contact with law enforcement or if your license has previously been suspended, there may be a waiting period before the court will grant you an occupational license. For more information about waiting periods click here.
