Santa Ana Underage DUI Lawyer
If you have been arrested for DUI and you are under the age of 21, you face very serious penalties. In fact, California is known for having some of the harshest consequences for underage DUI in the country. If you are under the age of 21 and you have a BAC of 0.01% or higher, you can be charged with DUI. If your BAC is higher than 0.05%, you can also be arrested at the scene.
California’s Zero Tolerance laws are extremely strict and you will be facing some or all of the following if you have been charged and/or arrested for DUI:
- License revocation (length of time is dependent upon your unique circumstances)
- Vehicle confiscation
- Various fines
- Incarceration
- Alcohol education classes
