Reinstating Your Driver’s License after a DWI

While most people would agree that drunk driving is a problem that should be dealt with in a serious
and strict manner, the laws in Texas may provide severe punishment for individuals who are wrongly accused
of driving under the influence of alcohol. If a person refused to submit to roadside sobriety tests
or a breathalyzer test, he or she may automatically lose his or her driving privileges following an
Administrative License Revocation hearing (ALR).

In order to reinstate your driver’s license, people must take special steps to show that their case
has been resolved or that they have completed the requirements of the court. An experienced DWI attorney
may be able to assist with the process and will work hard to help you retain your driving privileges.

Driver’s License Reinstatement

In order to reinstate your driver’s license, people should:

  • Show proof that the case has been resolved by providing an SR-11 release form to the driver’s license
    office
  • Provide a copy of the Court Approved Installment Agreement, which allows for payments to be made to
    retain driving privileges
  • Show proof of SR-22 insurance coverage if the court approves reinstatement on the condition that high-risk
    insurance is obtained
  • Pay any and all license reinstatement fees ordered by the court

The loss of driving privileges following DWI charges can have a serious impact on an individual’s livelihood,
and it is important to take steps to retain your license so that your work and personal life do not
suffer additional stress and strain.
