I live in Arizona, and my friend is in jail for a drug (Marijuana) DUI, rather than an alcohol related DUI. It is classified an Aggravated DUI since he lost his license a while back, and unfortunately he is facing another DUI for the same type of thing. I am trying to figure out if there is a difference between the way he is being charged because it is drug related. Any advice would be wonderful at this moment!
Thanks!!!!!

How and when can you get a dui expunged from your record in california?

I have a DUI & for a job I was offered I cant have an serious misdemeanors & I just need to know if a DUI is considered a serious misdemeanor.

Since I don’t drink and drive, I don’t fear them.

But I got pulled over in Las Vegas, and I thought they were pretty rude, even though I was cooperative.

I thought the Constitution was supposed to protect us from this kind of thing?
‘mona lisa’, what about the parent who had a child die fighting for freedom? would you ‘allow’ them an opinion?
patrick, that’s a false choice

cops could easily dit by a bar area, a look for probable cause. it would be like shooting fish in a barrel, and just as effective

My brother just got his 3rd DUI/DWI here in North Carolina. The other inmates at the jail told him he was looking at 18-22 months in prision. He had one of those ignition things on the car, but took it off. This was the 3rd in about 6yrs

When I went to the DMV to get my license back they said the DMV suspended my license for a year. I called the court and they said I should be allowed to get my license back, but the DMV wouldn’t give it to me. Why is this and what do I have to do to get it back? This is in CA by the way.

When does a 1st offense DUI go off my driving record.

It is 2:30 am; a man makes a left turn doesn't use a signal. Officer behind him pulls him over smells alcohol; after a field sobriety test, and breathlizer man is arrested for DUI, BA of .09
5 days later this man goes before a judge (with an attorney he has to hire) pleads no contest and takes his penalty. No one is hurt, every thing went smooth right?
Now what if I tell you this man was 21 years old had just come back from deployment from Iraq. Hasn't been home since he was 18. Was drinking at a bar 2 blocks from home and driving his friend home who passed out and was unable to walk. This young man gets the following;Suspended liscense.
Court ordered DUI prevention, MADD, and several other classes. Court ordered interlock device for 1 year. court ordered 96 hours community service,He paid the attonery 00, the court 0 after all is said and done,and the interlock company gets a total of $ 1000,Plus his commanding officer gives him a dishonarble and fines him 30days pay.
I guess what I am asking does the punishment fit the crime?
Not apples to oranges..
We are talking about someone who came home went drinking and started taking a friend home who was obviously intoxicated. While the person in question was over the legal limit and breaking a law why is the punishment so harsh. This is a first time offense. However with the nations current laws this man will not be eligble for any respectable career because he recieved a dishonarble discharge, and is now presumably in debt. My personal opnion is that this penalty does not fit the crime in question. No one was injured or in apperant danger. The person in question was nearly a 100 yards from home. So why so strict for every offender?
No people this does happen in several states on a first offense. Also several commands through out the US will give a dishonarble or Other than honarble to a first time offender that pleads guilty to prevent backlash from MADD or other agencies.

After the police pulled me over the officer pulled open the door and demanded that I get out of the car. He never gave me a breathealyzer he said the I was drunk and arrested me for dui. I paid 3,000 dollars for a lawyer and it took 15 months to go to trial. In Feb.,2007 the judge dismissed my case. Is there anyway to sue the police dept. for false arrest?

Also does old insurance let you back on or they kick you out? I think I was kicked off my dad's insurance… Is there a company I should look at that wouldn't be as expensive as others would since I have a DUI on my record? I'm a 21 yr old female from NJ
I mean I'm not sure how it went but he dealt with it and I just paid him…
