Chula Vista is located in southern San Diego County and has a population of about 217,478. As the second largest city in San Diego County, Chula Vista is 51.2 square miles in size. Chula Vista has experienced a population growth of over 20% since the year 2000. Considering its closeness to the California coast, Chula Vista has become a more desirable place for people to live and visit. As a consequence of the large amount of residents and tourists taking to the roads in Chula Vista, arrests for DUI have been known to occur in which a Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) hearing is likely to take place.

It is quite common for motorists arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs to not know that the officer who makes their arrest will take possession of their driver’s license. Additionally, a person charged with DUI in Chula Vista only has 10 days after his or her arrest to schedule a DMV hearing. If a charged individual does not request a DMV hearing, their driver’s license will be suspended automatically for thirty days from the date of arrest, or longer if any prior DUI convictions have taken place. These issues are only the tip of the iceberg. There are several other legal matters that may be addressed in a DMV hearing and there are numerous DUI consequences that may affect your life unless you contact an experienced attorney to assist you.
