Super Extreme DUI Attorneys in Phoenix
Were You Arrested for Super Extreme DUI in Arizona?
Arizona does not treat driving under the influence charges lightly. It is a criminal offense; one that can haunt an individual after the fact. More serious than a regular DUI is a super extreme DUI. Arizona Statute 28-1382 defines a super extreme DUI as the act of driving under the influence of alcohol and having a blood alcohol content of .20% or higher. This form of DUI brings harsher penalties than your average charge. That is why it is imperative that you obtain the right legal counsel to help you navigate the ramifications of a super extreme DUI charge.
Allow our former prosecutors to defend your rights! Call today to schedule a free consultation.
The Consequences of a Super Extreme DUI
Compared to a DUI conviction, the penalties of a super extreme DUI are much higher. The law looks to punish those who drive at a recklessly high blood alcohol level. Arizona is an implied consent state. This means that when you drive, you can be asked to take a breathalyzer test at any point. You have a right to refuse. However, if you do, you can have your license suspended and the officer can obtain a warrant to force compliance.
If you do take a breathalyzer test and your BAC reads higher than .20%, you can be charged with a super extreme DUI.
Penalties for first time offenses can include:
- Anywhere from 45 days to six months of jail time
- License suspension
- At least a monetary fine of $250
- Ignition Interlock Device
- Possible community service
- Possible alcohol counseling
Penalties for second time offenses can include:
- 180 days in jail (with 90 consecutive days)
- A monetary fine of $1,000
- Mandatory 30 hours of community restitution
- License suspension
- Ignition Interlock Device
