Oregon SR-22 Requirements
An SR-22 certificate is typically required for drivers seeking to reinstate their driving privileges post-suspension. This certificate, acting as proof of financial responsibility, ensures that you meet Oregon's minimum auto insurance requirements. An SR-22 is necessary for obtaining a restricted license and must remain on file as stipulated by the DMV, typically for at least three years following your suspension.
Ignition Interlock Device Requirement & Additional Fees Associated with a DUI
An IID is a breath analyzer linked to your vehicle's ignition system, designed to prevent operation if alcohol is detected. This requirement is a common stipulation for regaining driving privileges after a DUII.
Post-DUII convictions in Oregon may incur significant fees, including approximately $300 for license reinstatement and duplication.
The Implied Consent Law in Oregon
Under Oregon's implied consent law, any driver is considered to have consented to a chemical test (breath, blood, or urine) if suspected of DUII. Refusal to submit to testing can lead to immediate license suspension and can adversely affect the outcome of your case.
