Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to appeal an IRP?
Seven days from the date of the prohibition. That deadline does not move. Miss it, and your right to challenge the ban is gone.
Can I fight an IRP even if I failed the breath test?
Yes. There are many grounds to challenge an IRP — procedural errors, equipment issues, officer conduct, and Charter violations among them. An appeal is always worth exploring.
Will a DUI charge give me a criminal record?
A conviction can. That is why outcome matters. A criminal record can affect your employment, your ability to travel to the United States, and your immigration status.
Can I travel to the US with a DUI on my record?
A DUI conviction can make you inadmissible to the United States. If cross-border travel matters to you, say so early. It shapes the defence strategy.
