Do DUI Charges Transfer Between States?

Do DUI Charges Transfer Between States?

Answer

The video discusses reporting a DUI conviction between states through DMV systems. An out-of-state driver’s home state may receive notice of the South Carolina conviction and impose its own license consequences.

This video focuses on DUI convictions and interstate license consequences. It explains how the court reports a conviction to South Carolina DMV, which may notify the out-of-state driver’s home DMV.

Using North Carolina as an example, the attorney describes how the home state may impose a suspension under its own rules after receiving the report.

An out-of-state DUI case therefore requires considering the requirements of both states.
