ARD stands for Accelerated Rehabilitation Disposition, and if not handled correctly, you could be looking at jail time for your DUI.
ARD is a rehabilitation program for first time DUI offenders from the traditional criminal justice
system. Acceptance into the ARD program is at the sole discretion of the County District
Attorney and acceptance will suspend the prosecution of a case before trial and requires the
defendant to comply with conditions imposed by the court. An individual placed into the ARD-
DUI program is under supervision with the County Adult Probation Office for a specific period
of time. Expungement is not necessarily a part of the ARD program, so often to fully move past
your arrest you will need to hire a Pennsylvania attorney that has extensive DUI experience.
With the help of a competent DUI attorney, when the individual successfully completes the ARD
program, the defendant may apply for an expungement, which is a court-ordered deletion of the
arrest record, and the DUI charges will be dismissed.
