What you should know about the DMV Hearing Request in Hayward
It is important to know that a DMV hearing request must be made within 10 days from the date of arrest in order to contest your initial license suspension.

However, if you did not make the request within the 10 day time limit, a request for a late hearing may be made. Most DMV hearings are scheduled within 4-8 weeks from the date of arrest. The DMV will mail an additional temporary license so that your driving privileges remain valid until a decision from the hearing is made. There are many defenses to DMV hearings. These hearing can be won!
