Arizona DUI penalties are some of the most extreme and severe in the United States.  Arizona DUI law distinguishes DUIs into degrees of severity based on breath or blood alcohol concentration.

Arizona’s Extreme DUI

If you’re operating a vehicle and have over a .15 blood alcohol concentration (BAC), you will be charged with an Extreme DUI.  The penalties vary depending on if you are a first-time Extreme DUI offender, or if you have already had a conviction.

The penalties for a first-time Extreme DUI:

  • 30 days in jail (minimum) – 6 months in jail (maximum)
  • Suspended license for 90 days
  • 12-18 months ignition interlock device on all vehicles
  • fines and fees
  • Alcohol and drug counseling
  • costs associated with car insurance

Arizona Super Extreme DUI

A yet higher set of penalties face drivers who commit a Super Extreme DUI offense.  If the driver of a vehicle is found to have a .20 or higher BAC, DUI charges fall into the Super Extreme category.  The minimum jail sentence is 45 days, and the fines increase considerably.  The vehicle is impounded for 30 days, and all vehicles must have an ignition interlock device for 18 months.  These consequences may increase if the offender has a prior DUI conviction.

As mentioned, the penalties in Arizona for DUI, Extreme DUI, or Super Extreme DUI are harsh. A conviction has the potential to have a super-extreme impact on many areas of your life:  family, financial, future, professional, and personal.
