Legal Answers
5 Questions Answered
Q. How many times can you get a DUI in Kentucky before you lose your license?
A: Do you mean permanently? The Transportation Cabinet can move to revoke your driving privileges permanently under KRS 186.570. You would be entitled to a hearing to put on your defense, of course, and in my experience that provision is fairly rarely exercised.

For example if it determines that "a person is a habitually reckless or negligent driver of a motor vehicle or has committed a serious violation of the motor vehicle laws." 186.570(d).

Hope this answers your question better.
Q. Can I be convicted for both a DUI charge and for a refusal to submit to a breath test?
A: Yes.

The first is a charge for operating a motor vehicle under the influence under KRS 189A.010.

The second is a an implied consent violation under KRS 189A.103.
Q. Does kentucky law allow dui school online if i'm from another state
A: Kentucky does not allow you to take classes online anywhere in the country. However, you can take classes in a facility out-of-state that the Kentucky courts have approved of and have that count towards your requirement.
