How DUI Works


Introduction • •

Laws differ from state to state, there is no consistent punishment for a DUI conviction. The sentence depends on many factors, including the BAC at time of arrest


BAC .08% Still Arrested? • BAC(Blood alcohol content) at .08% is considered to be legally drunk. • If you have been charged with DUI / DWI look for a qualified criminal defense lawyer to represent you.


Consequences of a DUI Conviction • The consequences for a DUI conviction are significant • All states provide that DUI convictions are misdemeanors punishable by up to six months in jail and the imposition of substantial fines.


• First-Time Convictions  Sentences are much less in first time non‑injury DUIs.  Some states provide for a minimum number of days to be served in jail (typically from one to three days), while many others have no minimum sentence.


• Prior Convictions ďƒź If you have prior DUI convictions, judges are much more likely to seek a harsher punishment than if it is your first offense.
