If you're pulled over and convicted of DUI or DWI you may, depending on your state, be sentenced to DUI probation in lieu of jail. This means you'll be required to submit to various court-ordered conditions.  And though these arrangements vary by state, they may include:

  • Attending alcohol counseling or an alcohol abuse program.
  • Wearing an alcohol monitoring device.
  • Fitting your vehicle with an ignition interlock device.
  • Paying court fees.
  • Submitting to random sobriety tests.
  • Avoiding any major subsequent moving violations or criminal convictions. 

Should you ignore any of your DUI probation arrangements, you could be sent to jail, ordered to perform community service, face steep fines or have your probation period extended. 

Because drunk driving probation conditions can be confusing, you should consider seeking the counsel of a DUI Lawyer. They understand your state's DUI laws and will use this knowledge to your advantage. They could, depending on your situation, help you reduce the severity of your probationary conditions, saving you money and long-term inconveniences.
