Frequently Asked Questions
What are the penalties for a first DUI in Encinitas?
A first DUI in California can result in up to 6 months in jail, fines up to $1000, a 6-month license suspension, and mandatory DUI school. Penalties may increase if your BAC was 0.15% or higher or if there was an accident.
How long do I have to request a DMV hearing after a DUI arrest?
You have only 10 days from the date of your arrest to request a DMV hearing to challenge your license suspension. Missing this deadline means your license will be automatically suspended.
Can a DUI be reduced to a wet reckless in California?
In some cases, a DUI charge can be reduced to a wet reckless (reckless driving involving alcohol). This typically requires negotiation with the prosecutor and may be possible if your BAC was borderline or if there are weaknesses in the evidence.
