An Arizona DUI Implied Consent License Suspension is a 1- or 2-year suspension which the Arizona MVD may impose against a person’s Arizona driver’s license or privilege to drive even though they have not been, and may never be, convicted in court of a DUI charge.
The suspension is as a result of a finding by the Arizona MVD that a person arrested for a suspected DUI refused to submit, or failed to successfully complete, a chemical test (breath, blood or urine) for alcohol and/ or drugs as requested by a police officer. To be clear, the suspension may go into effect even if the person is never convicted of DUI, and even if the police did get a chemical sample and that sample did not indicate the presence of any alcohol or drugs.
The law provides that the person must expressly agree before the police obtain a search warrant and so if the person expressly agrees after the police have obtained a warrant by law it still is considered to be a refusal.
