Baltimore Multiple DUI Attorney
Have you been arrested for a 2nd, 3rd or 4th DUI?
The Maryland criminal justice system is cracking down on drunk driving in our state, and if you have previously been convicted of DUI or DWI, you know what harsh penalties are in store for anyone who is arrested. The punishments for a first offense are intended to be severe enough to prevent the driver from making the same mistake a second time. Following this approach, the sentencing for a 2 nd, 3rd or 4 th drunk driving conviction becomes progressively more serious. When you have been charged with a repeat DUI or DWI offense, you need the guidance and defense of an aggressive Baltimore DUI attorney to help you fight for your freedom.
The penalty for a second drunk driving offense depends on whether you are charged with DUI or DWI. A second DUI can send you to jail for up to 2 years, or 3 years if you had a minor in the vehicle. You will lose your license for a year and you can be fined up to $2,000. You will have to pay to have an ignition interlock system installed in your vehicle, meaning you will essentially have to pass a breathalyzer test every time you start the car. A repeat DWI is punishable by up to a year in jail, a one year license suspension and a $500 fine. If you are arrested for a 3 rd time, you may be sent to jail for 3 years and be fined up to $3,000, as well as losing your license for 18 months.
