If
you have been arrested for DWI, DUI, or drunk driving, it may seem like
there is no hope for your situation. There are serious
consequences for a drunk driving charge. - If you are charged, you automatically lose your license for 30 days.
If convicted, you could lose your license for a year. You could lose a professional license (medical, dental, real estate, etc.). If you have a commercial driver’s license, you could lose it. Your insurance could go up drastically. If convicted, it will affect your professional and family life
- Mast Schulz Mast Mills Johnson & Wells:
Traffic offenses do not only include minor infractions and speeding
tickets; multiple lesser offenses can result in more serious charges
being brought against you, and modern legislative trends indicate that
certain offenses may receive harsher punishments in the future. Common
violations receiving more attention in the legislature include: Driving
while impaired Driving without a license, or with a suspended or
revoked license Violation of rental vehicle agreement Driving without
insurance or without adequate coverage Negligent or reckless driving
Hit-and-run, or leaving the scene of an accident
Most minor violations will not subject you to jail time, but simply
paying the fine is an admission of guilt, resulting often in a severe
increase in your insurance costs.
