Quick Answer
Michigan driver's license restoration after a DUI revocation requires a Driver Assessment and Appeal Division (DAAD/AHS) hearing. You must show 12 consecutive months of sobriety, a current substance-abuse evaluation, and 3–6 notarized letters of support. Hearings are scheduled after you submit a complete petition packet.
