Arrest Date or Conviction Date

[t in IL]

I was arrested for a DUI in 2008 in IL and was just sentenced in 2010. The penalties for a DUI in IL drastically changed January 1, 2009, and my question is in regards to my drivers license. Will the penalties for my d/l be enforced as of my conviction date or arrest date?

Conviction date.

Those types of determinations are usually based on date of offense, NOT date of conviction.

If he is not convicted, then he didn't commit the offense.

But if you say so,

If there is no conviction there is no penalty - what's your point?
