Spring, TX.
Joe,
The penalties for DUI / DAI / DWI convictions vary according to many factors,depending on the blood alcohol level, the number of prior convictions, the age of the accused (in the case of underage drinking), and the status of the driver’s license at the time of the arrest. And can include a combination of:
Suspension of driver’s license; Revocation of driver’s license;Probation; Community service; Seizure of your vehicle; High risk insurance requirement;Fines; jail time; Suspension of your license plates; Mandatory alcohol education programs; Installation of an ignition interlock system on your car; & Criminal record evaluation. Along with high risk car insurance known as Texas Sr22 Insurance.
Great Question.
