Drunk driving suspects can expect to spend at least two hours answering questions, being fingerprinted and photographed, and submitting to chemical testing of the driver's blood alcohol content (BAC). A driver could spend a few hours before they are released, or it may take up to a few days.
The meaning of DUI is "Driving Under the Influence." ing to the California Vehicle Code § 23152, it is illegal to drive under the influence of any intoxicating liquor or drug, or a combination of the two.
Drivers who are under the influence of alcohol are typically charged with two DUI counts; driving under the influence of alcohol in violation of California Vehicle Code Section 23152(a) VC and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08 percent or higher pursuant to California Vehicle Code Section 23152(b) VC.
NEW LAW (EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 9, 2022) The new law mandates that any newly imposed DUI sentences be imposed consecutively if the individual has two or more prior offenses (with one exception noted below). This addition will be added as § 3804(c. 2) under to the existing “Penalties” part of the law.
A: For a first DWI offense in New York, you face a fine of $500 to $1,000, up to one year in jail, a minimum six-month license suspension, and a required installation of an ignition interlock device (IID). If your BAC was between 0.05% and 0.07%, you may instead be charged with a DWAI by alcohol.
Best Case. If you have been pulled over for allegedly driving under the influence, the best-case scenario you could hope for is that the officer(s) failed to gather enough evidence against you or made procedural, technical, or constitutional mistakes before, during or following your arrest.
