Grimes County Administrative License Revocation Hearings

An ALR hearing is an administrative hearing which is held to determine whether to suspend or revoke a person’s driver’s license after a DWI arrest. Your license may be suspended if:

• You take a chemical test (breath or blood test) and have a blood alcohol concentration of .08%
• You refuse chemical testing

For failing a chemical test, a first offense, your license may be suspended for 90 days. For a first offense of refusing chemical testing, your license may be suspended for 180 days.
