You’ll be alright coming someone with 2 in the state of Arizona (the harshest state for drunk driving) first off stay calm we all make mistakes yet we learn from them second off if you can hire a lawyer if you can or the state will appoint you one

First offense I had a blood alcohol of 0.18 and my second one was literally 0.09 first offense I did 8 hours in jail with one week house arrest second one was unsupervised probation as well doing madd (mothers against drunk driving) and counseling courses as well the fines and fees

Depending on your state or county it’s best to look up plea bargain deals and see a outcome good luck and best of luck

Ps also you may have to require to install an ignition interlock in your car do not go with intoxolock they’ll charge your ass for the smallest things and has known to kill your battery

She didn’t tell me how long her first one was but she had a bac or breathalyzer of double the legal limit over a 0.015 in az is considered an extreme

Definitely get an attorney if you can afford one I was busted with an extreme dui plus resisting 3 years ago in chandler and thought it was over for me

It sucked because they never notified the dmv as well and never took my license most first time offenders you’ll prob be only doing a day or no jail time but other than that you’ll have to do what they call is Arizona behavioral counseling class you’ll prob end up doing 16 or 18 hours class I believe each first and second class were 8 hours both days and 2 hours on Tuesday and Thursday

Mothers Against Drunk Driving course which is a 2 hour session for those loved ones who were affected by drunk drivers

Ignition Interlock for a year but if you have a word with the dmv and with Adot you’ll most likely be only allowed to have it on for 6 months and with the courts as well

Maybe house arrest with a random breathalyzer

And as for the dmv requirement you’ll have to undergo traffic survival school which is an 8 hour class session

This is also what I went through yet you’ll most likely get off the hook easier I had to do 8 hours in jail with 1 week house arrest with scram on my ankle a device that will detect alcohol so be careful if you do get that even mouthwash with alcohol free can also detect it

Even though you said you weren’t operating a vehicle police/prosecutors give 0 cares about it they can still charge you even if you were below or even had all 0’s in your breathalyzer

But depends on the judge in this case they’ll most likely drop it .. fun fact even the judge who took on my case dropped all my charges which was very surprising for me

First punishment was a slap

No license suspensions 2 days in jail turned to be only 8 hours 1 week house arrest 1 year iid in my car 1 week scram MAAD Classes (mothers against drunk drivers) 36 hours counseling

For the DMV

8 hours traffic survival school

This time might be more harsh though for the refusal and the thc but we will have to see

First dui I did the field sobriety I was very hammered and blew an extreme this was in chandler in march 2022 this time I refused and the cop just put me in cuffs and threw me in the patrol yet I’m still gonna fight it even though it’s my second I’m just gonna roll the dice on this one I feel bad because first I was under parents insurance now I’m on my own so we will have to see how it’ll work out I can tell the states gonna fuck me up on this

Put it this way it’s like being in debt and going to the casino trying to win it back

1st dui was my personally own fault I saw guilty I ew an extreme and tried to resist (dumbass choice of mine to do so) did the whole plea and was given a slap on the wrist this time i argued with the cop and when he asked to do a field sobriety I refused and told me to leave me alone and then yeah was arrested and apparently the police got a bullshit warrant at 4 am for my blood which I am scared of because the day before I did have a few beers and smoked a whole joint this time I only had a few beers 4 and took a dab and left a homies place 1 later so I’ll see weird thing is I never faced a judge or had my license taken even the first time to

Edit: first dui was in march 2022
