Page 1 of 6 Oregon DUII Implied Consent for Breath, Blood and Urine
Learn your Oregon DUI rights and responsibilities in regards to submission to a DUII chemical test.
If you refuse to take a chemical test after an Oregon DUII arrest, or if you take and fail a chemical test, your license will be suspended under the OR Implied Consent statutes. You will have 10 days from the date of your arrest to request a hearing. If you fail to request a hearing, or if the Oregon DMV does not receive your request within 10 days, your license suspension will start, typically 30 days after your arrest.
If you refuse the chemical test, you are typically looking at a 1 year license suspension, with at least a 90 day waiting period before you can get a hardship license.
If you take and fail a chemical test (result says 0.080 or more in non-CDL cases), then you are typically looking at a 90 day license suspension.
Requesting a hearing gives you a chance to get the suspension overturned or reversed. The single act of filing a request for a hearing does not, in and of itself, mean that your license will not ultimately be suspended.
An Oregon hardship license may be available to you under certain circumstances and if you meed certain conditions.
For details, see the Oregon DUII implied consent and license suspension statutes, which follow as additional sections to this article.
