Will My Vehicle Be Impounded If I Am Arrested for DWI?

Vehicle impoundment is one of the penalties you could face if you are arrested for DWI in Collin County or any of the surrounding areas. It is not as common to see a vehicle impoundment on a 1st-time DWI offense, however 2nd- and 3rd-time offenders are far more likely to have their vehicle impounded following an arrest. Once your vehicle has been impounded, you will be required to pay all towing and impound expenses before you can get it back. One of the other penalties you may face is the court-ordered installation of an ignition interlock device (IID) on your vehicle that would prohibit you from being able to drive if a breath tests shows any sign of alcohol in your system. Habitual repeat offenders may face having their vehicle confiscated after a DWI arrest. If your vehicle is confiscated, you may not be able to get it back.

For years, my firm has been a strong advocate for the rights of those individuals accused of DWI and other alcohol-related crimes. I am a skilled Collin County DUI lawyer who has defended clients in more than 200 DWI trials since 2007. During this time I have also earned in excess of 170 "not guilty" verdicts on behalf of my clients. I have undergone the same National Highway Traffic Safety Administration field sobriety test training as law enforcement officers in the area and I have been certified in Mastering Scientific Evidence in DWI/DUI Blood and Breath Testing. When being faced with multiple DWI charges and the serious penalties that go along with them you want me, Troy Burleson, on your side. I understand the severity of such charges and I will stop at nothing to help you obtain the positive outcome you seek. If you have been arrested for DWI or you have had your vehicle impounded after a DWI arrest, contact my firm or fill out a free case evaluation so that I can review your case and begin immediately working on your defense.
