What Is An Administrative License Suspension?

An Administrative License Suspension, or ALS, is a driver’s license suspension imposed by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles for either (1) one year for refusing a breathalyzer test, or (2) three months for testing over the prescribed limit of .08.

If an ALS is imposed, the officer will seize your driver’s license and send it to the BMV for shredding. An ALS is separate from any court-ordered suspension, and remains in effect even if you are not found guilty of any crime.
