If you have recently been arrested for DUI, you have likely already discovered how difficult losing your driving privileges can make things. Many DUI defendants are more upset by the loss of their driver’s license than any other aspect of the case. It is not easy to function in society when you do not have ready transportation. Fortunately, most first-time DUI defendants and even some repeat offenders can get a temporary restricted driving permit (RDP). This limited driver’s license only allows you to drive to specific places for specific and necessary reasons. There is also a strict application process you must go through to prove that you qualify for an RDP. If you are granted a restricted license, you will have to comply with the conditions listed on your permit. This often includes installing a device that tests your BAC before you can start the car and randomly while driving.
