Utah has raised the stakes for DUI offenses. Under the new law that took effect on January 1, 2026, anyone convicted of an "extreme DUI" (a BAC of 0.16% or higher) is automatically designated as an "interdicted person."
What does this mean for you?
• Forced surrender of your standard driver's license.
• Issuance of a new ID with a prominent red banner stating “NO ALCOHOL SALE.”
• A 100% ID check mandate across Utah, legally blocking you from buying alcohol anywhere in the state.
A single mistake can now fundamentally alter your daily life, social interactions, and employment. Read our latest article to understand how the new Interdicted Person Rule works and how to protect your future. ⬇️
