IRP Lawyer – Immediate Roadside Prohibition Appeal in Kelowna

Reviewing the notice before the 7-day deadline

An Immediate Roadside Prohibition is an administrative licence suspension issued at the roadside. It is not a criminal charge, but the consequences begin unless a review is filed within 7 days.

A lawyer can review the notice, explain your options, and submit the application before the deadline.

Call Aman Jaswal at (778) 652-9038 to discuss your IRP.

What Is an Immediate Roadside Prohibition?

After a roadside breath demand, police may issue a driving prohibition that takes effect immediately. The review is decided by RoadSafetyBC based on written evidence rather than a court hearing.

The prohibition can include a licence suspension, vehicle impoundment, driver programs, and reinstatement fees.

What To Do After Receiving an IRP

You have 7 days from the stop to apply for a review.
If no review is filed, the suspension proceeds automatically.

Before deciding how to proceed, a lawyer can examine the notice and determine whether grounds exist to challenge it.

Call (778) 652-9038 before the deadline passes.

How an IRP Appeal Works

The adjudicator reviews police records and written submissions.

A lawyer may obtain the officer’s report, examine the breath testing procedure, and prepare arguments based on the documentation.

The adjudicator then decides whether the prohibition remains in place.

Possible Consequences of an IRP

A confirmed prohibition may involve:

• 90-day driving prohibition
• 30-day vehicle impoundment
• Responsible Driver Program
• Ignition Interlock Program
• Reinstatement fees and program costs

What the Review Looks At

The adjudicator considers whether legal requirements were followed during the roadside investigation, including:

• The breath testing procedure
• The officer’s observations
• The documentation provided to the driver
• The records relating to the testing device
