What are the Penalties for Drink Driving in Tasmania?
In Tasmania, drink driving offences are treated seriously, with penalties varying based on your blood alcohol concentration (BAC), prior offences, and licence type. Even a first offence can result in significant consequences..
- Low-range (BAC 0.05–0.10): Fines, a minimum 3-month disqualification, and no eligibility for a restricted licence if you’re on a provisional or learner licence.
- Mid-range (BAC 0.10–0.15): Higher fines, a longer disqualification period (up to 18 months), and a mandatory court appearance.
- High-range (BAC 0.15 or more): Large fines, licence disqualification of up to 3 years and potential jail time
- Repeat offences: Harsher penalties apply, including longer disqualifications and higher fines, plus the possibility of jail time for small offences for serious or repeat matters.
These penalties can affect your licence, job, and future. Getting early legal advice may help reduce fines, shorten your disqualification, or keep a conviction off your record.
