That’s an ideal candidate - but anyone with 10 years of fairly blameless history may have a shot. I think the best shot is - with a good lawyer - showing that you’ve got 10 years of stable sobriety, an AA sponsor, and community and family connections who need you to drive. Technically, that you are “rehabilitated,” completed treatment, and do “not pose a threat to the safety of the public.” ORS 809.235(4). In short, you must prove by clear and convincing evidence that you’re no longer a threat. January 1, 2014, is long past - meaning we’ve now helped a fair amount of folks get their driver license back! Some people are mistakenly told that it’s a “10-year suspension.” It’s not, it’s a lifetime revocation - with a possibility of petitioning for your license back after 10 years. January 1, 2004, marked the beginning of Oregon’s experiment with “lifetime license revocation” for a third DUII conviction. I'm sorry, but this is quite serious - you'll want to hire a lawyer if driving is important to you. Your odds of being able to do this right on your own are slim, whereas your odds of a good result with a lawyer are much better.
