What Time of Day Do Most DUI Arrests and Accidents Occur? While DUI arrests and accidents can occur at any time of day, there are some hours when there is a higher risk of encountering a driver under the influence. The period of time from midnight to AM is the most dangerous time to be on the road.
1192.1 Driving while ability impaired carries a 90 day license suspension, a fine of between $300 to $500, and 15 days in jail. 1192.2 Driving while intoxicated carries a maximum one year jail term, a fine of between $500 to $1,000 and a 6 month license suspension.
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 punishment for a first DUI varies by state but often includes fines, license suspension, probation, mandatory alcohol education, and possibly community service. Jail time is rare for first offenses but may apply in cases of high blood alcohol content or accidents.
Drivers may end a case in a matter of days if they plead guilty or immediately accept a plea bargain offered by the prosecution. DUI cases that go to trial can take over a year to resolve in some cases. DUI cases are often broken up into different stages.
Under the two-hour rule, a chemical test analysis must be conducted within two hours of a suspected DWI driver's arrest or else the chemical test evidence is inadmissible in court. An important fact is that the two-hour rule is applicable only in situations where implied consent applies.
