New York DWI Laws and Requirements

Understanding New York’s DWI laws and requirements is imperative for anyone grappling with an alcohol-related offense. At LifeSafer, our mission is to guide you through the intricacies of the legal framework and the necessary measures to restore your driving rights.

Administrative: If you are arrested under suspicion of DWI in New York and either fail a breath test or choose not to take one, you are given a 10-day period from the arrest date to request an administrative hearing. Neglecting this step or receiving an unfavorable hearing outcome can lead to a suspension period, influenced by your previous offenses.

Judicial: New York’s DWI laws are stringent, with different levels of alcohol-related offenses. For instance, a driver whose blood alcohol content (BAC) is .08 percent or higher can be charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI). Those with a BAC surpassing .18 percent face charges of aggravated DWI. Moreover, those with a BAC ranging from .05 to .07 percent can be charged with driving while ability impaired by alcohol (DWAI). In line with Leandra’s Law, established in 2009, any individual convicted of DWI must fit an ignition interlock device (IID) in any vehicle they drive. It’s also essential to note that CDL license holders cannot obtain a conditional CDL license; only regular licenses qualify. To procure a conditional license, the installation of an IID approved by New York state is obligatory.

New York DWI Courts: These courts, tailored for DWI offenders, predominantly center on therapeutic measures and preventing subsequent alcohol-related legal issues. Learn more about New York DWI courts and services our DWI Courts information page.
