Out of State DUI & DWI Charges
When an out of state driver is arrested for DUI, DWI or OUI, he/she will face criminal penalties in the state where the offense occurred. Additionally, the driver may face repercussions in his/her home state, in accordance with his/her driving privileges.
For example, an Oregon resident is arrested in California for driving under the influence. While California law enforcement cannot confiscate his/her Oregon driver's license, the person's California driving privileges will be revoked as per California law, and the driver will face criminal penalties in California. If the driver is convicted of DUI, his/her Oregon driver's license may also be suspended, in accordance with his/her California driving privileges.
