DUI: An Expensive Night Out
It’s the holiday season and you’re going out with friends. After paying the cover charge, having several drinks at a local hotspot, and maybe some food, you’re feeling a bit lightheaded and a lot lighter in the wallet. Then, you make the poor decision to drive. After all, it’s been a great night, what can go wrong? A lot, as it turns out!
The police pull you over, give you a field sobriety test, and arrest you for DUI.
Florida Statutory Penalties
For a first DUI conviction, you are facing certain mandatory sentences, such as:
- 6-month driver license suspension
- DUI Program/ referred treatment
- 50 Community service hours
- $500 fine plus court costs
- 10 day vehicle immobilization
- 6 –12 month probationary period
- Possible 6 – 24 month vehicle ignition interlock device
- Potential jail sentence up to 6 months
If you have already been convicted of a prior DUI, the penalties may be even greater.
