Oklahoma Second Offense DUI
If a driver is arrested for Driving Under the Influence, the charges will carry legal repercussions that can include a fine and jail. As with most criminal offenses, a repeat charge will bring harsher penalties.
Sentencing for a Second DUI
If a driver is convicted of two DUIs in a ten-year period, the second DUI will be labeled a felony DUI. Felonies are serious charges, and bring harsh consequences.
- A felony DUI charge has a mandatory minimum of one year in prison.
- The driver’s license will be suspended for some length of time.
- The state could levy a fine of up to $2500.
- The state will almost certainly require an Ignition Interlock Device, which requires the driver to take a Breathalyzer test before the car will drive.
With all of these, the particulars of the case can increase the penalties incurred by the driver.
