Costs for DUI have been estimated to be more than $5,540 in California. (Actual costs may vary. This amount does not include attorney fees or lost wages due to court appearances.) Here is a conservative itemized breakdown for a first DUI offense:
* Fines/Penalties—$1,500
* Tow/Impound Fee—190
* DUI Treatment Program—550
* Insurance Increase—2,700
* Restitution Fund—500
* DMV Reissue Fee—100
* Total Approximate Cost:—$5,540
(I got a DUI in the past too… the other thing that ends up costing you money is needing rides while your licence is suspended
Good luck!! )
5000.00 p;us a whole lot of pain
now mind you that is the base /starting point

such as:
