DUI Charges Elevated to an Aggravated DUI
Most people are familiar with a standard DUI in which a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is .08% or higher. In Arizona, a person can also be charged with an elevated DUI, known as an aggravated DUI. An aggravated DUI is not based on a driver’s BAC but rather on other circumstances, including the following:
- The driver has a past criminal record
- The driver has been charged with over three DUIs in the past seven years
- The driver was involved in an accident that resulted in serious bodily injury, death, or extensive property damage
- The driver was operating a vehicle with a revoked or suspended license
- The driver had a minor under the age of 15 in the vehicle at the time of his or her arrest.
In Arizona, an aggravated DUI is a felony offense and can result in a number of penalties, such as probation, community service, large fines, the suspension or revocation of the offender’s driver’s license, time spent in state prison, and mandatory alcohol awareness classes.
