DUI Law
Following the first DUI offense, the driver will have their license revoked for a period of one year. There is a mandatory minimum jail term of 48 hours, although this rises to 7 days if the offender’s blood alcohol level is 0.20% or higher.
If you are charged with a DUI for the second time, there is a mandatory custodial sentence of 45 days and a minimum fine of $600. You will also have your driving license revoked for 2 years.
Third timer offenders receive a mandatory sentence of 120 days in jail with a minimum fine of $1100. A 6 to 10-year license revocation can also be applied.
Upon the fourth DUI offense, the charge automatically becomes Felony DUI which carries a minimum 150-day jail sentence along with a minimum fine of $300. This also has an 8-year license revocation with no availability of a restricted license.
