Can a police officer confiscate my drivers license at the scene of a DUI?
A police officer can confiscate your physical driver’s license at the scene of a DUI if you are arrested, and that is fairly typical. However, what he will do is give you a temporary license in its place. That temporary license allows you to drive temporarily until you can have an administrative hearing to determine whether the suspension will ultimately go into effect.
