After you are arrested for DWI (driving while intoxicated) in Texas, the police officer will confiscate your driver’s license and give you a temporary driving permit. You must then schedule an ALR hearing with the Department of Public Safety (DPS) within 15 days of your arrest, to contest your license suspension. Failure to schedule a hearing will result in the automatic suspension of your license on the 40th day after your arrest. You would then need to pay a fee to reinstate your driver’s license. However, you will also have your license suspended if you lose your license revocation case. The duration of your license suspension will vary depending on the specific circumstances.
