Q: Can the DMV Suspend My License Even If I’m Cleared of DWI Charges in Court?
A: Yes, the DMV can suspend your license even if you are found not guilty in court. This usually happens if you refuse a chemical breath test, such as a breathalyzer. The DMV conducts a Refusal Hearing, where the standard of proof is lower than in court. If the hearing officer rules against you, your license will be suspended regardless of the court’s decision.

Q: Is It Mandatory to Perform Field Sobriety Tests During a Traffic Stop?
A: No, you are not legally required to perform field sobriety tests. These tests are used by officers to assess whether they should proceed with a chemical or breath test. However, their reliability can vary unless done properly. Refusing field sobriety tests does not carry legal consequences, unlike refusing a chemical test.

Q: What Does the Driver Responsibility Assessment Fee Mean?
A: The Driver Responsibility Assessment is an extra fee imposed by the DMV for offenses like alcohol- or drug-related violations or refusing a chemical test. The fee is $250 annually for three years and is separate from court fines or penalties.
