For first-time offenders and repeat DUI offenders, your license will be confiscated immediately per Georgia’s Administrative License Revocation (ALR) if:
- Your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level was .08 or higher
- You refused a breath test
Georgia courts require Ignition Interlock Devices (IID) for all DUI offenders. You’re required to pay for all costs associated with the IID, from installation, monthly lease payments, and service fees to removal. You may also be required to attend an alcohol and drug screening program.
