If you are arrested for Driving Under Influence (DUI) in California, the arrest will be recorded and may be accessible to the public. This can have serious consequences for your personal and professional life.
DUIs usually trigger a license revocation after 30 days unless you contest it. If you are arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in California, you typically do not lose your driver's license immediately. Instead, the arresting officer usually takes your driver's license and issues a temporary permit.
In general terms, most DUI convictions come with the following common penalties: License suspension. DUI probation. Mandatory DUI class attendance. Fines. Jail time. Eventual restricted license with an ignition interlock device.
A first offense DUI in California is a misdemeanor typically punished by 3 to 5 years of probation, $390.00 to $1000.00 in fines plus penalty assessments, DUI school, a 6-month driver's license suspension, and installation of an ignition interlock device.
A: Unlike in some states, jail time is uncommon for a first-time DUI offense in California. A first-offense conviction can result in penalties such as misdemeanor probation, DUI school, fines, and license suspension. However, jail is only typical in certain California counties or if other factors exacerbate the crime.
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.
It is possible for a first-time DUI case to be dismissed, but that will require the help of an experienced criminal defense attorney who can research the facts of the case before forming a legal strategy to have the charges dropped.
