What Is Aggravated DUI?
Aggravated DUI is a felony driving under the influence offense that is commonly charged for the following reasons:
- Habitual offense: Individuals can be charged with aggravated DUI on their third DUI and any subsequent DUI
- Injury: If someone suffers bodily harm as a result of someone driving under the influence, the allegedly impaired driver can be charged with aggravated DUI
- Suspended driver’s license: Someone driving on a suspended license from a previous DUI can be charged with aggravated DUI if he or she is alleged to be driving under the influence
Prosecutors pursue these charges aggressively, so the threat of serving prison time is very real in many cases. It is crucial to have an attorney with the trial skills and resources necessary to fight back and protect your rights.
