Open Intoxicants - MCL 257.624a - Josh Jones - Michigan Criminal & Marihuana Lawyer - ALL FELONIES & MISDEMEANORS


Open Intoxicants – Open Alcohol In A Motor Vehicle

Did you know that if you are in a vehicle that is upon a highway or otherwise open to the general public or generally accessible to motor vehicles you are not allowed to have an open container of alcohol? This applies to an individual driving or simply a passenger of the vehicle. See MCL § 257.624a.

The rule states that individuals are “not allowed to not transport or possess alcoholic liquor in a container that is open or uncapped or upon which the seal is broken within the passenger area of a vehicle.” MCL § 257.624a(1). The passenger area of a vehicle has been defined as: “the area designed to seat the operator and passengers of a motor vehicle while it is in operation and any area that is readily accessible to the operator or a passenger while in his or her seating position, including the glove compartment.” MCL § 257.624a(5)(d).

If an individual is convicted of this crime for a first time he or she will receive two (2) points on his or her drivers license. Also, a misdemeanor will be placed on the individual’s record. Moreover, if an individual is convicted of the crime two (2) times within 7-years then he or she will receive a 30-day suspension followed by 60-days of having a restricted license. An individual convicted three (3) will receive a 60-day suspension with a 305-day restricted.

It is imperative to know what happens to your license when you plead guilty to or are convicted of an alcohol or drug crime. An individual may also have to perform community service and undergo substance abuse counseling at the direction of the court.

What’s more important is knowing that your past criminal history, if involving alcohol or drugs, will only bring about more licensing issues and stiffer requirements while on probation. Other crimes can too have an impact on when you can drive again.

Contact a criminal defense attorney immediately if you are involved in any kind of criminal action. Who has you back? Josh Jones.
