An Arlington Heights DUI arrest usually starts with a traffic stop by Arlington Heights police, field sobriety testing, and transport to the Arlington Heights police station for chemical testing. The driver is issued a citation with a first court date at the Cook County 3rd Municipal District Courthouse in Rolling Meadows, typically 4 to 6 weeks out. A statutory summary suspension under 625 ILCS 5/11-501.1 begins on the 46th day after arrest. An Arlington Heights DUI lawyer often files a petition to rescind before that suspension takes effect.
