Simultaneously, by contacting the DMV within the first 10 calendar days you can also challenge the suspension of your driving privilege which is already in place.

You can request your D.M.V. "Administrative Per Se" Hearing by calling (858) 627-3901. If you call, you will select a hearing date & time and then a Hearing Officer will be assigned.
