The DUI Law in Georgia

Drunk driving is charged as DUI in Georgia, at a blood alcohol level of 0.08 or more.

Driving in Georgia is consent to a breath or blood test when an officer has cause to suspect DUI; the license case that follows a refusal or a failed test is run by the Department of Driver Services, separately from the criminal case.

For charging and sentencing, Georgia counts prior offenses within 10 years.

The Court Case

The District Attorney files the charge, and the case is heard in the State Court, or the Probate Court in counties without one.

Georgia has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.

The License Case

The court case is only half the record. The Department of Driver Services runs a separate administrative case over the license, which can suspend it before the criminal case is decided, and the Georgia Department of Driver Services keeps the driving record the conviction goes on.
