Missouri 5- and 10-year Denial of License Laws
A loophole in the DWI statute allows some drivers to avoid the 5-year license denial upon a conviction of Driving with Excessive Blood alcohol content (Excessive BAC). A reduction of a DWI charge to Driving with Excessive BAC (577.012) allows the driver to avoid the statutory 5-year license denial on a 2nd DWI conviction.
