Restoration Process

1. Petition the Circuit court, of residency, for an evaluation to restore your driving privileges.
2. The Circuit Court will set a court date for the Judge to issue a court order for the evaluation. Once you have obtained the court order you will need to contact the local Alcohol Safety Action Program (ASAP).
3. The day of your appointment, have the names, mailing addresses, and phone numbers of four people that the office will contact as references. If you have an attorney assisting in this process, you will need to provide the name, mailing address, and phone number.
