A friend of mine recently went on a trip to Queensland for a wedding.
On the way back from the wedding he was pulled over for a alcohol test, he blew .09. What I want to know is how long will he most likely lose his license for, and what sort of fine will he be looking at? He holds a Tasmanian license, so does this change anything? It is his first offense in 24 years as well. Thanks in advance. Todd.

.09 will be something in the 600-1000 range and maybe 3-6 months.
He will be prohibited from driving in QLD and will probably get a show cause from TASPOL. I am fairly sure it is not an automatic suspension in all states yet. |

hey mate, i got done for .1 in feb this year, and i had a $500 fine and a 8 month restriction, the idea is that i have a work licence so i can still get to work and back, and they normally double the period, so it should have been a 4 month normal suspension.
