I REFUSED A BREATHALYZER TEST, HOW LONG DO I LOSE MY DRIVER’S LICENSE?

Q: I was given a refusal to breathalyze by the cop, reckless driving and a DUI how long am I likely to lose my license.

A: If you are ARD (Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition) eligible, you will receive a 60 day license suspension on the DUI. If you do not receive ARD, you will receive an 18 month suspension on the DUI. PennDOT will suspend it another year for the refusal. If you plead guilty to the Reckless Driving, you will receive a 6 month suspension from PennDOT. I advise hiring an attorney to mitigate your damages.
