A driver's license in North Carolina is a privilege, not a right
If they took your license for Driving While Impaired (DWI), that's a big deal. You may not realize how valuable that little piece of plastic is until it's taken away.
Even with mass transit in Charlotte, getting to work and taking care of your family can be difficult, if not impossible, without a valid driver's license.
Frankly, the NC DWI Laws are complicated if not confusing, especially to those who have little to no experience dealing with the legal system.
People call us on a daily basis asking, "Can I get a Hardship License?"
Am I eligible for a Limited Privilege?
Whether you call it a Hardship License or Limited Privilege or a "Paper License," the process isn't as straightforward as you may think.
The North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles (NCDMV) has a number of rules and regulations in place that govern who is eligible for driving privileges and under what circumstances.
What happens if I refused to blow?
