West Warwick Law

. ยง 31 - 27 - 2 Driving under influence of liquor or drugs My question is my first violation was on 11 / 30 / 2007 year to date my second violation is 12 / 12 / 12 , which is not within the five year period . The AG and court said it is not from the violation date but the time starts when I was finally charged from the conviction date on 10 / 10 / 2008 . I would like to know what the law is in RI about the 5 year look back period and if this can be truly used against me in court .
The look back period begins with the conviction date, not charge. A conviction date of 10/10/08 would carry a look back...
I had a DUI in NH in 1994, served the sentence in RI. Now NH wants me to pay a fine (not a problem) and supply them with original completion certificate for DUI class. I'm not even sure that was part of the law then. Anyway RI gave me my license back, without dui class requirement and I had no trouble renewing my RI license until this time.

My dui is in the process of being expunged and the terms for the dismissal was to plead guilty to the refusal of the breath test. My lawyer told me my criminal record will be cleared but my driving record will show the refusal. I'm worried because I travel to Canada very often for my job and don't know if I will be okay crossing the border yet with just the dismissal documentation and the refusal on my record.
More information is needed. However, a decision to plead guilty can show up on your record as may a suspended license....

I was recently arrested for a DUI in FL. As a result of blowing a breath result of .16, FL is going to require that I have an ignition interlock device. Will Rhode Island require me to have this machine as well if I don't intend on returning to FL? If it is relevant, I have one prior DUI conviction other than this, approximately 15 years ago.
You will need to do what FL DMV requires to get a valid license there. If you do not comply with FL DMV than RI will...
