what are the consequences of receiving a DUI in two different states?

you're probably lucky that you got them in 2 different states.  the only thing it will affect, if you haven't already lost your license, is the ability to get good car insurance where you live.

In my state, you can look up your circuit clerk website for the county you live in.  There is information on there listing traffic violations, which would include DUIs.

I would suggest that you contact an attorney... that said, driving with a suspended license is criminal with implications differing from state to state. Like the other posters have written, you could see jail time (not prison time), however that seems unlikely. If this is the first offense, and you have paid off the fines that got your license suspended in the first place, get your license reinstated. Go to court and show the judge your brand new license. He will probably fine you a big whopping fine and send you on your way. If you can't get your license reinstated, go to court anyway and see if the judge will give you time to get it reinstated. Hope this helps.

yes you can request a copy, but as far as i know there is not limit on dui reporting so always list it and the date so they can see it and if its been 10 years and you have a clean record there should be no problem.

You would have to read the DUI statute for your state. Most statutes specify that in order for the stiffer penalties to be assessed, the suspect has to be convicted of DUI, not just arrested for it. \n\nOn a side note: What the hell are you doing with someone like that. He obviously didn't learn the first time and now wants to get pulled through the wind wing for refusing to get out of the car. Get a better BF and have a better life.

In several states, after a certain number of years of no DUIs, a new DUI is considered a first offense.\n\nIt sucks.  If I were in charge of the world, a person arrested for DUI would lose their license for a minimum of 2 years on a first offense and would pay thousands of dollars in fines.  They also would be permanently required to only drive vehicles with breathalyzers installed.  If any alcohol is detected, the car won't start.  If they violate these penalties, they would be imprisoned in work camps.\n\nAnyone killing anyone as a result of drinking and driving would be indicted and stand trial for murder.\n\nCan you tell that I'm sick and tired of drunks on the road?

First do not drink too much and drive. If you do have a couple of beers or glasses of wine at dinner and are of average weight, you should be ok. There are charts available that can give a gauge as to how many drinks you may have in a given time period for your age, sex and weight. This is a gauge only and can be affected by amount of food in your stomach etc. \n If you are pulled over and believe that you are not impaired then the best policy is to cooperate and be polite. In most states you would have had to be pulled over for a traffic infraction or based upon reasonable suspicion of impairment (most cases of reasonable suspicion would fall into a traffic violation category anyway). Many officers are specialists in DWI stops and will conduct the stop in a certain way to gain evidence of impairment. This will include your speech, mannerisms, odor of alcohol, coherence etc. If the officer is not satisfied that you are sober upon this first encounter he may ask you to exit the vehicle. He has every right to ask the driver of a vehicle to exit the car, this was part of a Supreme Court decision. \n  He will observe how you walk and interact with him. He will then ask you to take some Field Sobriety Tests. These are standardized tests. You can refuse. However this will turn the stop confrontational. An arrest for DWI can be made by officers prior observations of your driving, and the first encounter. If the officer thought you drove poorly enough to pull you over, that is strike one in his head, an odor of alcohol is strike two, a slight stumble out of the car and a refusal to take tests will most likely end in your arrest. Again if you are confident in your sobriety cooperate and be glad someone is out there potectiong the roads from drunks, hopefully the officer will have reciprocated your kindness with his own profesionalism.

There is a fairly comprehensive site on Florida DUI issues http://www.dui-help.com/dui-florida.html which is primarily devoted to DUI defense, but they also have an "ask a lawyer" form which may get you a decent response - http://www.dui-help.com/questionindex.html \n\nI hope that this is helpful to you.

It differs from state to state. But you will probably be fined and the establishment may be fined also, have their liquor license revoked, or be shut down.

It depends on if he was convicted before.  First offense is usually 30 days in jail, a hefty fine and suspension of the driver's license.  Community service might be required as well.  \n\nOther effects can include an instant jump in insurance rates, loss of commercial driver licenses, and manditory drug/alcohol abuse counciling.

Depends on the state that you're in, how that state considers (if it does) issues like fault and relative negligence, what limits on liability the other driver has, how aggressive your lawyer is, how strongly your medical case will correlate the condition to the accident, etc.\n\nToo many factors to guess.

The states are all linked by computer now.  The DMV in any state will see you are suspended.

I've known a couple people that have had them expunged.  One guy was in Minnesota, but the laws have since changed, so that any recent DUI's stick with you forever.  The other guy I know had one in Ohio, and it was taken of the record after something like 10 years, give or take.  But I think Ohio has new, stricter laws as well.\n\nBoth of these DUI's were in the late 70's or early 80's.

No. States do check on each other's driving records. Someone I know went through the same thing. Anyone is free to leave the State and go to another State. If you want to become a resident in that other State you need to get in touch with your probation office and ask them for some type of "transfer" documentation for the other State's probation office. You will not be able to get a drivers license in the other state until your sentence or guidelines from your old State are complete in the new State. Plus...you would want your old State to know so you won't get arrested for being AWOL on your probation when you go back to visit Aunt Wilma.

i cant speak for how Iowa does it but i can tell you in IL and IN how its done. Depending on the speed on the second ticket there will be a drivers class he would have to take (which is mind numbing to say the least- my brother had to take it) on the third ticket (depending on the time between tickets) you would lose your license till your 21. I know Iowa has a slightly different way of going about it. I would say call your local police department for exactly details since its a serious matter, but my advice to you is to get him to slow down before you have to drive him everywhere for the next 5 years i wish you the best of luck and i hope all turns out well

Do a plea with adjudication  withheld.  They can send you to jail if the Judge desires.  Your license was suspended end of story.  Show the Judge that you are currently working to rectify the DUI charges with the state.  Hence, you can ask for some mercy.  Before you go to Court, get your DUI obligations all cleared up (including community service and alcohol counseling if required) and get your license out of suspension if you can.  Get a hardship license if you still have a suspension waiting period. \n\nReally, do your best to make the Judge happy that you are taking your DUI suspension seriously.\n\nGood Luck and Take Care
