DUI Lawyer in central, Ohio
If you are convicted of OVI in Ohio, yellow “restricted plates” are required in certain circumstances.
- If you are convicted of OVI as a first offense, the judge may order restricted plates as a condition of granting you limited driving privileges.
- If you are convicted of O.V.I. as a first offense that involves a “high test”, the judge must order restricted plates as a condition of limited driving privileges.
- If you are convicted of OVI as a second offense or more within six years, the judge must order restricted plates as a condition of limited driving privileges.
- If you are convicted of O.V.I. as a fourth offense or more within 20 years, the judge must order restricted plates as a condition of limited driving privileges.
Also, if you are placed under an administrative license suspension, a judge may order restricted plates as a condition of granting you limited driving privileges.
If a judge orders the use of restricted plates, you must surrender your license plates to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and obtain the restricted plates from the Bureau. The restricted plates must remain on your vehicle for the duration of the license suspension.
