Had you had competent dui counsel back in 2010, and as a non-resident, you could have elected the six month no driving in WV with classes and reinstatement fee and been good to go. Those days are now long gone. Interlock providers are everywhere throughout country now and DMV's state to state much more streamlined. In early 2014, WV eliminated this non resident aspect and now required all aggravated first offenses, whose suspensions are upheld, to do the minimum mandatory 9 months interlock (w/ classes and fees) or you'll never have a lawful license the rest of your life. Good luck. Harley O. Wagner - WestVirginiaDUILawyers.com
