DUI Penalties go up

To those with a third conviction of driving with at least twice the legal limit of alcohol in their system, and for anyone with fourth DUI convictions, new legislation went into effect that increases penalties for repeat DUI offenders.

The law that went into effect just before Christmas is meaningful. Pam Ondash, a mother whose son was killed by a drunk driver in 2011 says, “Our lives don’t go back to normal because there is no normal to us anymore.” (The holidays are)”a time of celebration. But the flip side is it’s a time that people are uninhibited. They don’t think about their choices.”
Get caught and you can expect more severe penalties that include longer mandatory jail time.
