Orange County DUI Schools
Orange County DUI Alcohol Schools, Alcohol Programs and Alcohol Education Classes
This page contains the list of all approved alcohol schools in Orange County, as well as information on the alcohol programs required by the court and DMV.
Starting an alcohol school can get you a restricted driver’s license. That allows for driving to and from the alcohol program, to and from work and for any work purposes. When you complete an alcohol program, you can get your full license back in most cases.
There are several types of alcohol programs, which depend on age, priors, and alcohol level, as detailed below.
Question: Can I do an alcohol school online? Not if you have a California license or live in California. Unfortunately, California doesn’t license or approve any internet alcohol programs for DUI.
