Austin criminal defense attorneys Charlie Roadman and Mary Ann Espiritu explain the process of getting an occupational license after a TXDL license suspension due to a DWI arrest. They explain that these licenses are necessary when a person's driver's license is suspended, often following a DWI arrest. The license allows for driving within specified hours (typically 5 am to 11 pm) for work, necessities, and health appointments, but not for entertainment purposes.
The process of obtaining an occupational license involves providing a current address, defining driving hours, and specifying counties for travel. If an ignition interlock device (IID) is installed in the vehicle, the license permits more flexible driving hours. Applicants also need to obtain special SR-22 insurance, which ensures that the DPS is notified if the insurance coverage lapses.
Applicants must provide proof of employment, and a driving record from the DPS. If an IID is installed, proof of installation is also required. There are associated fees for filing the petition, and the process is expedited if all required documents are promptly provided.
