Implied consent law is an understanding every motorist tacitly agrees to when they receive their driver's license. This legal concept means that, as part of being a licensed driver, you have given your consent ahead of time to undergo breath, blood, or urine testing to determine the presence of alcohol or drugs in your system if properly requested by police.

Each state may have variations in how they implement implied consent laws, but the foundational principle is consistent. Knowing these laws inside and out is imperative-if pulled over, drivers need to be aware they've already consented to testing and refusing could bring additional penalties.

Refusal to comply with chemical testing requested by an officer can result in immediate and long-term consequences. Depending on the state, an automatic suspension of your driver's license is often the first penalty. Further ramifications can include hefty fines, mandatory education programs, and sometimes even jail time.

The severity of these penalties can escalate with repeat offenses or if serious injury or damage was caused. Our expertise can guide you through these rules and consequences ensuring you're not caught off guard by the extent of the law's reach.
