Explanation
If you are convicted of driving under the influence (DUI) in California, you face serious legal and administrative penalties. These may include:
- Mandatory completion of a state-approved DUI program
- Suspension or revocation of your driving privilege for up to one year
- Jail time of up to six months
- Fines and fees, including license reissue costs
- Requirement to file an SR-22 (proof of financial responsibility)
