| DUI ticket. 90 day prohibition. Dispute question.
If I dispute this ticket will I get my licence back until the court date at least? I was an N driver and I blew a fail.

IRP / 90-day Immediate Driving Prohibition
A 90-day IRP driving prohibition (Immediate Driving Prohibition) is issued at the roadside by a peace officer who alleges that a driver has provided a sample to an Approved Screening Device that then registered a "fail" reading. The prohibition begins immediately and the driver's vehicle is impounded. The duration of the prohibition is 90 days. The impound duration is 30 days. There is a monetary penalty of $500, in addition to the towing and storage charges. As well, anyone served an IRP must enroll in and complete the Responsible Driver Program ($880 plus $105.60 tax), they cannot drive until the 90-day period has expired, they have paid a $250 license reinstatement fee and had an alcohol interlock device installed in their vehicle ($1730 plus $207.60 tax).
YOU CAN CHALLENGE the 90-day IRP driving prohibition, but you must file your Application for Review within 7 days of being served the Notice. The review fee paid to ICBC is $200 for an oral hearing.
To challenge the driving prohibition you should first speak with a driving lawyer so the lawyer can help you with the paperwork and pick a date for the hearing. Then the Application for Review must be filed at an ICBC Driver Services Center. If you are successful on the IRP review hearing, you are permitted to obtain a driver's license at the earliest opportunity, your vehicle is released and the towing and storage charges are paid for by the government up until the day the successful review decision is issued.

Want my opinion? Don't fight it, cause you fucked yourself right when you got into your car tonight. I'm not going to bang on you for it cause everyone makes stupid decisions and it looks like you know you fucked up bad, or atleast are about to find out how bad soon. So roll with the punches, suck it up, pay the fees and do the 90 days. It'll just be a harsh learning experience, and hopefully you'll do well to not make the same mistake again. Anyways, best of luck to you.

You fucked up.
You can't dispute it, and there's no point. You're going to lose your license since you blew a fail with your N.
Live with it.
Next time, make someone else drive you when you decide to go out and get smashed.

Completely understand I fucked up. However I am still in question about the Responsible Driver Program, do I have to enroll in this after the 90 days? Or can I simply pay the reinstatement charges?

Sorry dude this is the hardest way to learn. Don't drink and drive. I'm not a saint, I did it once too. I got caught with a warning, I've never ever done it after that. It's not worth it. All the best man

If you have your N and get suspended for a period such as 90 days... You will need to restart your N all over again for 2 years.
You fucked up for sure.

How exactly do you plan to dispute the charges???
You drink, You drive, You got caught....
Now with the new law in place and you have an N.... Whatever you say in front of the judge is going in one ear and out the other...
You could hire a lawyer to see what they say.. some are good with DUI..

I thought the new law or something was passed that even class 5's can't have any alcohol?

The only way is to get a lawyer. Its always a mixed result, the only way the lawyers can get you out of this is to prove that the officer's procedure or his equipment is flawed, or you blowing a fail is due to "mouth alcohol". (to my understanding, they did not pull you into the station for the blood test)
Edit: nevermind, what I said would only apply if you had a class 5, but with an N, you are supposed to have 0.
qmx323, 0.5 is the warn level after the new laws. anything before generally your ok.
Rule of thumb, just dont do it, really not worth it, but its too late to look back. Life happens and at least your alive and so is everyone else on the road with you that night.
