if i got a ticket for drinking, i am underage. will my licence get suspended?

Answer 1

There is no ticket for "Drinking".

Either you got a DUI or a DWI.

Answer 2

I think it depends on the state. I live in AR and here if you are caught drinking underage you can lose your license until you are 21. My son JUST went through this, and thankfully either they did not know he has his permit or they cut him a break, because he still has his...it's just in MY pocket now! :-) And to ALL you underage children, PLEASE don't drink & drive, there's already too many "of age" drunks on the road as it is. Please think before your drink, think of the devistation it will cause your loved ones if you were to die of alcohol poisioning, or in a car wreck. Think of how you will feel when you see the toddler's body splayed on the road "because you were only getting home" and crashed into a family, think of the look on the parents faces (if they are fortunate/unfortunate to survive - I know if my baby died, I would not want to live either) or the years you will spend in prison for involuntary manslaughter, and please, think of these things BEFORE you take that first drink and you may think twice about doing so. I have a brother who is alway's saying, "what will make you laugh, will also make you cry" and as much as I love him, he should know, he's an alcoholic.

Answer 3

I am not sure what you are asking? Were you in a vehicle and drinking? Were you pulled over? Was your blood tested over the limit? There's a lot of complexities with respect to this law, one side is civil, the other is criminal. With more details, I would be able to give you a clue ... but it may be best to seek a lawyer in your community for a consultation to find out what the full consequences would be and if a guilty plea may protect you.

Answer 4

DUI's kill way too many teens, I hope you get your license pulled, not because I think you're evil, but because it's a safeguard, hopefully between you and that first DUI. A guy ran over a kid where I used to live, he was older, but he was drunker than a skunk in a vat of whiskey, and he didn't even know he hit the kid.
I'm just speechless when I read about stuff like that...please don't drink and drive...

Answer 5

It depends on the case, two of my friends recently got a MIP (minor in possession). One of them got his license taken away for 3 months (I've heard others with just one month). My other friend just had to log some community service time and pay the ginormous ticket. I’m from California, these regulations might be different in your state. If you you were driving you're in deep s**t.

Answer 6

Almost certainly. I doubt you could convince an arbitrator to let you keep your licence. The best you can do is hope it can be re-instated within the year.

Even when you turn 21, expect the same. Don't drink and drive!

Answer 7

"Utah’s strict alcohol guidelines are widespread because the “not-A-DROP” rules. consequences for violating any of those guidelines in Utah are severe. they might comprise thousands of greenbacks in fines or maybe detention center time. Utah courts would also order that the minor take area in a substance abuse classification. a first time violation for underage eating or possession of alcohol can effect in a ninety day motive force’s license suspension. A second violation interior of three years can effect in a motive force’s license being suspended for 365 days. A minor who violates underage eating guidelines earlier they're the right age to have a Utah motive force’s license will be denied application for a motive force’s license till ninety days once they grow to be older adequate to legally observe for his or her license."

Answer 8

not sure, but if you are concerned, do NOT pay the ticket....go to court on the court date instead and speak with the solicitor about an alternative to losing your license such as probation, or taking an alcohol class.

Answer 9
