Implied Consent

What a DWI or Refusal Charge Involves

If you are caught driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or higher, you will be cited for driving under the influence (DUI). DUI/DWI is a serious crime in New Jersey.

New Jersey has an implied consent law. That means that if you refuse to submit to a chemical test, then you will be subject to a fine and, since New Jersey’s December 2019 reforms, a mandatory ignition interlock device rather than a lengthy suspension.

Even if you are charged with a DWI/DUI you still have legal rights. One of those is the right to speak to an attorney.
