DWI first offense what’s gonna happen?
Hey i got charged with a DWI this weekend and it was my first offense. I blew a .14 at the station and stayed there all night. I have court in a month and I have never been pulled over or arrested for anything. I am a senior in high school and i get really good grades. Anyone beeen in a similar situation and have any idea what i am looking at here?
Worst case scernario, you’re gonna get your license taken away until you are 21, community service and a big fine….but not only are you getting the DWI charge, you are also going to get hit with under age drinking and probobly some other stuff. I wouldn’t be too concerned about getting jail time because it’s your first offense, but don’t go to court without a lawyer. The first court appearance is formality and you can ask for a public defender if you can’t afford an attorney. Then you’ll get another court date. If you have a good lawyer they can probably get the charge reduced, but more than likely you are going to either lose your license til you’re 21 or it’s going to be suspended or restricted, so be prepared for that. What the hell are you doing driving drunk anyway?!?!?! Do you have any idea how many young people are killed in alcohol related accidents??? Good Luck,,,,but don’t be stupid…you say you get good grades,,,,,where the hell was your brain last night ?!?!?!
