From The Kugel Law Firm – Does DUI Transfer from State to State? explores how a DUI conviction can impact your driving privileges across the U.S., especially for New Jersey residents. This episode breaks down how DUI charges don't just stay local – they follow you through systems like the Interstate Driver’s License Compact (IDLC) and the National Driver Register (NDR), even if you move to another state. Whether you're facing a DUI or planning a relocation, understanding these systems is essential for protecting your record and your rights.
In this episode, we examine the legal mechanics behind DUI charge enforcement beyond state borders. Listeners will learn how states like New Jersey, through agreements such as the IDLC, impose penalties like license suspension, revocation, and mandatory education programs—even for offenses committed elsewhere. We also highlight differences in state participation, noting that Georgia, Michigan, Tennessee, and Wisconsin don’t share DUI data in the same way, and how this affects enforcement.
We'll also explore how DUI convictions influence auto insurance, complicate license applications in a new state, and follow you through national systems like the Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS). Through real-world scenarios and actionable advice, the podcast sheds light on how DUI-related restrictions and obligations don’t stop at the state line—affecting everything from court appearances to SR-22 filings and probation modifications.
Finally, we bring clarity to what you should do if you're dealing with DUI consequences across states. With insights from Rachel Kugel and her team at The Kugel Law Firm, you'll understand the importance of resolving court obligations, communicating with DMVs, and how legal support can help navigate both New Jersey and out-of-state requirements. Tune in to safeguard your future and learn how to move forward with confidence—even when a DUI tries to hold you back.
