DWI Conviction Remain on Your Record Permanently in Minnesota
Records of implied consent license actions and DWI convictions must be retained permanently on the official driving record. The “no alcohol” restriction of a person’s BCard also remains in effect and on the person’s driving record permanently. A temporary law enacted in 2005 allowed B-Card holders who had gone ten years without a repeat violation to request a duplicate driver’s license without the “No Alcohol” verbiage showing under “Restrictions.”
However, that law expired July 31, 2006, and as a result, there currently is non-procedure by which a B-Card holder can have the “no alcohol”. Contact your local Benton County DWI Attorney if you have any questions.
