Most DUIs are misdemeanor criminal offense. Some DUIs can be felonies. Clearly, any felony is a serious offense. Misdemeanor DUIs are Class 1 misdemeanors. Class 1 misdemeanors are the most serious misdemeanor offenses. All misdemeanor DUIs carry mandatory jail sentences, significant motor vehicle points, suspensions, ignition interlock requirements, etc. In Arizona, the mandatory minimum sentence for a 2nd Offense Super Extreme DUI is six months in jail. As a misdemeanor, a DUI conviction remains on your criminal record for life. That’s no small offense.
