Michigan Super Drunk Law
Aggressive Farmington Hills Super Drunk Law Defense Attorney
In 2010, the state of Michigan enacted a "Super Drunk" law, technically known as High Blood Alcohol Content Enhanced Penalty. The law increases penalties for drivers who are convicted of a DUI/OWI with a high BAC (blood alcohol concentration). The new legislation allows a first-time DUI offender, or an offender who hasn’t been charged within 7 years, to be charged with maximum penalties if they are caught driving with a blood alcohol concentration of .17% or higher. If the driver has had a multiple DUI convictions within the last 7 years, they will most likely face even harsher penalties.
