Georgia Implied Consent
Did you know that, under Georgia state law, you are legally required to submit to chemical testing if you are pulled over by an officer who suspects you are driving under the influence (DUI)? Indeed, refusing to submit a breath, blood, or urine sample to the officer can lead to serious criminal charges for violating Georgia’s Implied Consent Laws—which, in some cases, can lead to even harsher penalties than failing the test.
When you first applied for your Georgia driver’s license, you were notified of the state’s Implied Consent Law. What’s more, by accepting your license, you also agreed to comply with it—even if you don’t remember doing it. As a result, violating this law can lead to consequences such as hefty fines, a lengthy license suspension, and even jail time.
In addition to the criminal consequences associated with an implied consent conviction, you may also face long-term difficulties in your personal life. Once your insurance provider learns of your conviction, you can expect your rates to skyrocket and, in some cases, your coverage may be dropped entirely. Your current and future employment status may also be put at risk, as many employers are weary of hiring someone who has a criminal record.
