What is the purpose of this hearing and what can it do for me? How long will my driving privilege be suspended if I took the chemical test? Do I need a hearing to get a restricted driver license to go to and from work? The officer stated I refused to take a chemical test. What does this mean? How long will my driving privilege be suspended for not taking the chemical test? How is the DMV suspension or revocation for the DUI arrest different from the suspension or revocation following my conviction in criminal court? How can I find a Driving Under the Influence (DUI) Program as ordered by the court? I've just been arrested for DUI. What happens now? The officer is required by law to immediately forward a copy of the completed notice of suspension or revocation form and any driver license taken into possession, with a sworn report to the DMV. The DMV automatically conducts an administrative review that includes an examination of the officer's report, the suspension or revocation order, and any test results. If the suspension or revocation is upheld during the administrative review, you may request a hearing to contest the suspension or revocation. You have the right to request a hearing from the DMV within 10 days of receipt of the suspension or revocation order. If the review shows there is no basis for the suspension or revocation, the action will be set aside. You will be notified by the DMV in writing only if the suspension or revocation is set aside following the administrative review. Back to Top of Page At the time of my arrest, the officer confiscated my driver license. How do I get it back? Your driver license will be returned to you at the end of the suspension or revocation, provided you pay (on or after January 1, 2003) a $125 reissue fee to the DMV and you file proof of financial responsibility. The reissue fee remains at $100 if you were under age 21 and were suspended under the Zero Tolerance Law pursuant to Vehicle Code §§23136, 13353.1, 13388, 13392. If it is determined that there is not a basis for the suspension or revocation, your driver license will be issued or returned to you. Back to Top of Page The officer issued me an Order of Suspension and Temporary License. What am I supposed to do with this document? You may drive for 30 days from the date the order of suspension or revocation was issued, provided you have been issued a California driver license and your driver license is not expired, or your driving privilege is not suspended or revoked for some other reason. Back to Top of Page The Notice of Suspension that the officer gave me at the time of my arrest states I have ten days to request an administrative hearing. What is the purpose of this hearing and what can it do for me? A hearing is your opportunity to show that the suspension or revocation is not justified. Back to Top of Page For how long will my driving privilege be suspended if I took the chemical test? If you are 21 years of age or older, took a blood or breath test, or (if applicable) a urine test, and the results showed 0.08% BAC or more: A first offense will result in a 4-month suspension. A second or subsequent offense within 7 years will result in a 1-year suspension. If you are under 21 year of age, took a preliminary alcohol screening (PAS) test or other chemical test and results showed 0.01% BAC or more, your driving privilege will be suspended for 1 year. Back to Top of Page Do I need a hearing to get a restricted license to go to and from work? No. A request for a restricted license cannot be considered at the DMV hearing. You may apply for a restricted license to drive to and from work at any DMV field office. Back to Top of Page The officer stated I refused to take a chemical test. What does this mean? You are required by law to submit to a chemical test to determine the alcohol and/or drug content of your blood. You did not submit to or complete a blood or breath test after being requested to do so by a peace officer. As of January 1999, a urine test is no longer available unless: The officer suspects you were driving under the influence of drugs or a combination of drugs and alcohol, or Both the blood or breath tests are not available, or You are a hemophiliac, or You are taking anticoagulant medication in conjunction with a heart condition. Back to Top of Page How long will my driving privilege be suspended for not taking the chemical test? If you were 21 years of older at the time of arrest and you refused or failed to complete a blood or breath test, or (if applicable) a urine test: A first offense will result in a 1-year suspension. A second offense within 7 years will result in a 2-year revocation. A third or subsequent offense within 7 years will result in a 3-year revocation. If you were under 21 years of age at the time of being detained or arrested and you refused or failed to complete a PAS test or other chemical test: A first offense will result in a 1-year suspension. A second offense within 7 years will result in a 2-year revocation. A third or subsequent offense within 7 years will result in a 3-year revocation. Back to Top of Page How is the DMV suspension or revocation for the DUI arrest different from the suspension or revocation following my conviction in criminal court? The DMV suspension or revocation is an administrative action taken against your driving privilege only. The suspension or revocation following a conviction in court is a mandatory action for which jail, fine, or other criminal penalty can be imposed. Back to Top of Page © 2003 State of California.

DUI Help - Drunk Driving Research - Pilots Convicted of Flying Under the Influence Everything You Need to Know About First Offender DUI / DWI, Drinking Driving and Drugs Home | State By State Help | DUI Lawyers | Insurance Help | Breath Testers | DUI Videos Drunk Driving Research Google Search Results Pilots Convicted of Flying Under the Influence Jury Convicts Former Midland Pilot for Drunkeness in Plane 06/10/2005 Midland Reporter Telegram Former Midland Pilot Convicted of 2002 Drunkenness in America West Airliner By Ed Todd MRT Correspondent Thomas Cloyd Jr., a 47-year-old former Midlander who grew up in aviation and who, until July 2002, was a pilot for America West Airlines, and his co-pilot, Christopher Hughes, 44, were convicted this week by a Miami jury for being drunk in the cockpit of their airliner just prior to take-off on a Miami-to-Phoenix flight. "He (Cloyd) just made a terrible, terrible mistake," said Tom Dollahite, a retired Midland corporate pilot who has known Cloyd since his growing-up years in Midland and was a dear friend to Cloyd's late father, Tom Cloyd Sr., a fellow corporate pilot who died at age 64 in the 1995 crash of a Commemorative Air Force B-26 Marauder bomber of World War II vintage. The senior Cloyd, who was not piloting the B-26 at time of the crash, was a seasoned CAF pilot who regularly flew the B-29 Superfortress and the B-24 Liberator. The younger Cloyd is a 1976 graduate of Midland's Robert E. Lee High School. "He was kind of my surrogate son," Dollahite said. "He and my son, Tommy Jr., grew up together." Dollahite's son, a retired United States Air Force pilot, currently is flying for Southwest Airlines. Cloyd's mother, Margaret Cloyd, lives in Midland and is active in the CAF. The Associated Press reported earlier this week that Cloyd and Hughes could be placed on probation or could be sentenced up to five years in prison at sentencing on July 20. Florida Circuit Court Judge David Young ordered both men to be jailed and held without bail, The AP reported. "I sure hope they (the courts) are lenient on their sentence," Dollahite said, "but ... ." The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) "immediately" revoked Cloyd's and Hughes' commercial pilot's licenses after their Miami-to-Phoenix flight was canceled as their Airbus 319 was being removed from the gate by a tug in readying for flight on July 1, 2002. Security screeners at Miami International Airport had detected the strong scent of alcohol on the pilots' breath, and Cloyd had gotten got into an argument because he wanted to bring a prohibited cup of coffee aboard the airliner, The AP reported. Airport police ordered the airliner to return to the terminal. Aboard the flight were 124 passengers and three flight attendants, The AP reported. "We have protected some lives today," Florida prosecutor Deisy Rodriguez said Wednesday following the two-week trial. She had characterized the pilot and co-pilot as "stumbling, fumbling" drunks who put the passengers' lives in grave danger, The AP reported. Testimony indicated the pilots had drunk 14 beers between them late into the night prior to the scheduled morning departure of their flight. Cloyd and Hughes "demonstrated careless and reckless behavior by getting into that cockpit under the influence of alcohol," Rodriguez said. The AP also reported defense lawyers stated testimony indicated neither pilot was visibly intoxicated and the pilots were not in control of the aircraft when airport police ordered the airliner back to the terminal. The aircraft was being positioned by a tug for taxiing and then for takeoff. "Flight doesn't occur until the plane begins to move under its own power," said Cloyd's defense attorney Daniel Foodman, The AP reported. "Nobody was in danger. Nobody testified Mr. Cloyd did anything wrong in that cockpit." However, Florida prosecutor Armando Hernandez said, "Within the aviation community, it was clear they were operating this aircraft" before the engines were powered up and before takeoff, The AP reported. Cloyd, who lives in Peoria, Ariz., and Hughes, who resides in Leander, did not testify in their own defense during the trial. Court testimony revealed the pilots had consumed 14 beers and had a $122 tab at a Coconut Grove sports bar until 4:40 a.m. on morning of the scheduled departure of their flight at 10:30 a.m., The AP reported. Sobriety breath tests hours later showed the pilots' blood-alcohol level was above Florida's legal limit of 0.08 percent. Experts testified the blood-alcohol levels were probably much higher when the pilots boarded the airplane. Hughes' defense attorney, James Rubin, said even if the pilots had been drinking the night before their flight, they exhibited no signs of drunkenness. "There was no untoward sign of impairment," Rubin said in closing arguments, according to The AP. "They appeared to be acting in a normal fashion." The AP reported that "central to the defense" was whether the two pilots legally were operating the airliner prior to takeoff. However, Rodriguez, the prosecutor, cited testimony that both pilots had performed flight checks for 30 minutes before the airliner was pushed away from the airport gate and the pilots, when questioned by police on the day of their arrest, said "yes" when asked if they had been operating an aircraft. "They confessed, and they indicated that absolutely they were operating that aircraft," Rodriguez said in The AP report. Jury: Former pilots guilty of being drunk in cockpit Fort Lauderdale, Fla. -- A Miami-Dade County jury on Wednesday found two former America West pilots guilty of operating an aircraft while drunk. The verdict came three years after the pilots had gone on an all-night drinking binge. The six-man jury convicted pilot Thomas Cloyd of Peoria, Ariz., and co-pilot Christopher Hughes of Leander, Texas, after deliberating for about six hours. Both men wept as the verdicts were read.

DUI Arrest

The Smoking Gun: Archive Turns out another "Big Brother 3" contestant knows what it's like to get nailed for drunk driving and other crimes, The Smoking Gun has learned. Amy Crews, 24, was arrested in February 1999 and charged with driving while intoxicated after crashing her Toyota in a one-car accident near her Arkansas home. According to this West Memphis Police Department report , Crews's car struck a concrete mailbox, rolled onto its roof, and slid for 25 yards before stopping. When cops arrived at 3:30 AM, Crews not only failed a field sobriety test, but registered a .14 on a breathalyzer machine (in 1999, the Arkansas legal limit was a blood alcohol content of .10). At the time of her DWI arrest, Crews was 20. Since 1935, the legal drinking age in Arkansas has been 21. In March 1999, Crews pleaded no contest in Crittenden County District Court to the misdemeanor DWI charge. She was hit with a one-year suspended jail term, fined $1000, directed to pay court costs of $300, and ordered to attend alcohol safety school and an alcohol education class. But it's unclear what Crews might have learned during those courses, since she is often seen guzzling the wine and beer of other Big Brother houseguests, some of whom have talked openly about her prodigious alcohol consumption. In fact, contestant Tonya Paoni--who was just voted off the show--confronted Crews last week and told her she should enter Alcoholics Anonymous upon leaving the Big Brother compound. Crews appears to relish her role as the show's tipsy, boyfriend-stealing Southern belle, a young woman who does not hesitate to denigrate fellow contestants she deems beneath her. Allison Grodner, the reality TV show's executive producer, has said that "Big Brother 3" staffers "fell in love with Amy" during auditions. "She's a very classy person, opinionated and judgmental in her way, and we like that," said Grodner. "She's not afraid to say what she feels, so we've really enjoyed her." The 1999 DWI arrest is not the only entry on Crews's rap sheet: * While a student (briefly) at the University of Mississippi, Crews got nailed in April 1997 for possession of beer by a minor , a misdemeanor. She was fined $172 in Oxford Municipal Court. * In December 1998, Crews was arrested for reckless driving and driving with a revoked or suspended license after leading an Arkansas state trooper on a high-speed chase. In fact, Crews was going so fast on Interstate 40--92 mph in a 65mph zone--that the arresting officer noted in his report that he "attempted to catch up with the speeding vehicle but found it to be very difficult." In early-1999, Crews was convicted of misdemeanor reckless driving after a Crittenden County District Court trial (she had previously paid a $75 fine to settle the driving with a suspended or revoked license charge). * In February 1999, a West Memphis Municipal Court judge issued a warrant for Crews's arrest after she bounced a check --for a whopping $6.77--at the Flash Market gas station. * That warrant remained outstanding until Crews had another run-in with cops, this time in May 1999. She was arrested after a bizarre fender-bender at a bank drive-thru window. When cops responded to the accident scene they discovered Crews was driving though her license had been suspended as a result of the March 1999 DWI conviction. And a warrant search also turned up the bum check--a violation of the Arkansas "Hot Check Law." The check charge was eventually dropped when Crews made restitution to the gas station. And after pleading no contest in Crittenden County District Court, Crews paid a $95 fine to settle the other misdemeanor charges. On July 22, TSG reported that Chiara Berti, another "Big Brother 3" contestant, was arrested in late-May on drunk driving charges , which are pending in Los Angeles Superior Court. Asked about the 25-year-old's arrest, which came during the final stage of "Big Brother 3" auditions, CBS spokesperson Chris Ender gave reporters a flippant comment about the DUI charge: "On the brighter side, she won't be doing any driving in the house." Incredibly, Ender repeated the same comment when TSG spoke to him today (7/29) about Crews's alcohol problem. "This is a reality program, and in reality people aren't perfect," he said. home | contest | featured document | email
