Drink Driving or Drug Driving
Each year in Queensland approximately 12,000 Queensland motorists are convicted for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The Courts treat these offences very seriously and this can detrimentally affect the rest of your life, including job prospects, if you are convicted. The penalty imposed can range from receiving fines to serving an actual period of imprisonment.
We can provide advice on the expected penalty range for your matter. We can also appear for you to make submissions on your behalf to ensure that you receive the best possible outcome.
Disqualified Driving
It is an offence to drive without a valid Driver’s Licence. The penalties for such offence are severe and can result in imprisonment.
Should you be in breach of your disqualified driving period, you should seek legal advice immediately to ensure you obtain the best possible outcome.
Work Licence Applications
A work licence allows you to operate a vehicle for employment purposes during a specific time of the day (this is also known as a restrictive or day licence).
If you wish to apply for a work licence, the application must be made to the Court before you plead guilty to the charge. This charge relates to driving under the influence which will likely result in the loss of your licence. If you do not apply for a work licence before pleading guilty, you will be prevented from applying for a work licence at a future date.
It is important that you seek advice before you appear in Court. Please contact our office if you wish to determine whether you may be a candidate for a work licence application.
