Drink Drive -- Get caught again and lose your licence for longer

Drivers with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) between .05 and .079, who have a previous alcohol offence for drink driving will lose their licence for longer.

  • Second offence - lose your licence for three months
  • Third offence - lose your licence for six months
  • Fourth or subsequent offence - lose your licence for 12 months.

If you commit an offence of driving with a BAC of .05-.079 and it is your first drink drive offence, the Police will issue you with an expiation notice.

If you commit another drink drive offence, you may be prosecuted through the Courts.

A second offence will result in your licence being disqualified and cancelled and you will be subject to provisional or probationary conditions when your licence is re-issued.
