When I was arrested for DUI, the police officer confiscated my driver's license. How can I get it back?
You will have to pay a reissue fee and show proof of auto insurance after your suspension or revocation to get your confiscated driver's license back.
Your California's driver's license will be returned to you at the end of the suspension or revocation, provided you pay a $125 reissue fee to the California DMV and you file proof of financial responsibility. The reissue fee is $100 if you were under age 21 and were suspended under the Zero Tolerance Law pursuant to Vehicle Code §§23136, 13353.1, 13388, 13392. If it is determined that there is not a basis for the suspension or revocation, your driver's license will be issued or returned to you.
