Legal Question in DUI Law in New Jersey

New Jersey driver received dui in NC

I recieved a DUI febuary in NC. I am a New Jersey licensed driver and reside there. BAC was .15. My nc privileges were suspended for the one year minimum. Should i call the DMV in new jersey to let them know or should i just let NC give them the information. How long will my NJ license be suspended? I read another post to were someone tried to get the NJ suspension lowered to 90 days, how is this possible? If i wait till NC notifies NJ will my NJ suspension go from the date convicted or the date they find out? Thank you.

Re: New Jersey driver received dui in NC

New Jersey will suspend you for seven months if you are a first offender. Calling motor vehicles might be a good idea. You might as well get it over with.

New Jersey requires a .08 reading for a presumption of dwi guilt. If you reading out of state were an 08 and less than a .10 you would get a 90 day suspension in New Jersey as a first offender.

Call me if you like.
