Understand your situation

Received a DUI or impaired driving suspension?

An impaired-driving incident can affect much more than your licence — your vehicle, your job, your insurance and your daily routine.

The process depends on where it happened and what type of notice or charge you received. We help you understand what you received, which deadlines may apply, and what options may be open to you.

Important

Is your matter a criminal charge?

An administrative licence suspension and a criminal impaired-driving charge are not the same thing. We help with the administrative side. If you’re facing a criminal charge, you may need a qualified criminal / impaired-driving lawyer.

FAQ

Common questions

General information only — not legal advice. Your situation depends on your notice and province.

What is a DUI?

“DUI” is the everyday term for impaired driving. The exact terminology and legal process differ between provinces and between administrative and criminal matters.

Is an IRS the same as a criminal charge?

No. In Alberta, an Immediate Roadside Sanction is an administrative penalty. It is separate from a criminal impaired-driving charge, and you could face one, the other, or both.

How long do I have to appeal?

It depends on the province and the sanction. Alberta’s standard IRS review deadline is generally 7 days; Saskatchewan’s roadside suspension appeal window is generally 90 days.

Can I drive while my review is underway?

Not automatically. Requesting a review does not by itself cancel a suspension. Always confirm your licence status before driving.

What if I missed my deadline?

In Alberta, a late review may be available in certain circumstances. Eligibility depends on your situation, so contact us as soon as possible.

Do I need a lawyer?

It depends on what you’re facing. Administrative reviews and criminal charges are different processes. For a criminal charge, consider advice from a qualified lawyer.

Received your notice?
