If you refused to take a breath or blood test after you were arrested for a drunk driving offense, you have only 14 days to request a hearing before your license is suspended for one year and 6 points are added to your license. You can be completely sober without a drop of alcohol and still face these harsh sanctions so long as the police officer had probable cause to believe you were guilty of drunk driving. This is because Michigan's "implied consent" law sets forth penalties that are separate from drunk driving sanctions.
