What a 2nd Or 3rd Offense Means
A 2nd or 3rd DUI offense carries serious penalties. You could lose driving privileges indefinitely, pay fines and be incarcerated. At a minimum, you could be convicted, revoked and be required to serve time in jail or perform community service.
In addition to that, your insurance costs will skyrocket and you could be responsible for court costs and vehicle impound fees.
Second offenders are not eligible for court supervision. Thus, a conviction requires a minimum one-year revocation, and sanctions including fines, classes and potential incarceration.
Third offenders, upon conviction, are revoked from driving for a minimum of five years, and sanctions of fines, classes and potentially one to three years in the Department of Corrections.
Fourth offenders face severe felony sanctions, in addition to a lifetime ban from driving with limited ability to regain any driving privileges — even if you move to another state.
