NJ D.W.I. Lawyer - Criminal Defense FAQ
D.W.I. is a traffic offense only in New Jersey. If a person is convicted for a D.W.I., then this will not give you a criminal record. Because it is a traffic offense only, there are no jury trials for D.W.I. cases in New Jersey.
Since D.W.I. is not a criminal offense in New Jersey you are not finger-printed. Therefore, the arrest record will not show up in any criminal data base. If you are convicted in New Jersey of D.W.I., then the conviction will only show up in the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission records.
In most of the other states a D.W.I. offense is a criminal charge. If you live in another state and if you are convicted of D.W.I. in New Jersey, the conviction will transfer to your home state "administratively," but not criminally. In other words, other than a probable additional loss of driving privileges in your home state, you will not be prosecuted again for a criminal offense. However, it will count in the future as an enhancing factor if you are charged in your home state with a subsequent D.W.I.
I have significant New Jersey D.W.I. experience handling the drug and other criminal charges that often accompany a D.W.I. charge, including drugs in a car or CDS in a Motor Vehicle, which carries a two year loss of New Jersey license, in addition to a suspension for a D.W.I. conviction.
