Costs of a DUI conviction in California
Many people do not realize how much mon
ey they will have to pay out if convicted of a DUI. According to the Insurance Information Institute of California, costs can be as much as $10,000 or more. You will have to pay for your attorney to represent you, higher insurance premiums, court costs, fines and traffic school. You will have to pay to get your vehicle out of impound at a cost starting at over $200. The bail bondsmen will charge you ten percent of your bond. Jail time will limit your ability to work. Do not forget about possible breathalyzer ignition switch costs, probation and the ability to not be able to drive for a period of time.
Implied consent
If you are pulled over while under the influence, beware. You will not have the legal authority to refuse a blood or breathalyzer test. Driving is a privilege and not a right. If you do refuse to perform either of them, you could lose your driver’s license for the minimum of one year.
