What's a DWLR?

Understanding DWLR in North Carolina and How Breathe Can Help 
What is DWLR? 
In North Carolina, DWLR stands for “Driving While License Revoked”. This charge occurs when an individual drives a vehicle while their license is revoked due to a previous impaired driving offense, such as a DWI (Driving While Impaired). It’s a serious offense that can lead to severe penalties, including fines, extended license revocation, and even jail time. 
Why is an Assessment Needed? 
If you are charged with DWLR, the court may require you to undergo a substance use assessment. This assessment is crucial because it helps determine the extent of any substance use issues and the appropriate level of treatment or education needed. The assessment typically involves: 

1. Clinical Interview: A licensed professional will conduct an interview to understand your substance use history and its impact on your life. 
   

1. Standardized Screening Tools: These tools help in identifying the severity of substance use and any co-occurring mental health issues. 
   

1. Treatment Recommendations: Based on the assessment, recommendations for treatment or education programs will be made.
