In Denver, Colorado and surrounding areas, the time your license is revoked, truly depends on the type of DUI, DWI, UDD, charge you received.

Colorado has a felony DUI law that went into effect in August 2017. This law requires a person that was convicted of a felony DUI to actually spend time in jail. If this is your first, second, or third DUI offense, you do not need to worry about the felony, though anyone with a fourth DUI offense in Denver, needs to be aware that any additional DUI arrests will lead to time in prison. The drunk driving laws in Colorado are broken into two category situations. The first is a DUI and the other is DWI, driving while impaired. The way the charge is decided upon or determined is by the consumption of alcohol and the BAC which is the blood-alcohol concentration in your body at the time of the arrest.
- The legal BAC limit for drivers 21-years-old and older is 0.08 percent
- The legal BAC limit for drivers younger than 21 is 0.02 percent
- The legal BAC threshold for a DWAI is 0.05 percent
- Commercial drivers are subject to a nationwide BAC limit of 0.04 percent
Unlike many other States, Denver Colorado has an ‘express consent’ law in relation to a DUI/DWI arrest where it requires the owner of the vehicle, the operator/driver, to submit a breath or blood test. This can only be done if the office giving the citation has what is called ‘probable cause’ that the driver is intoxicated. As a driver, and a human being, you do not need to obey and take such a test, simply refuse it. Doing this, one must understand that the court can use this against one to prove they are guilty.
