When Does a DUI Become a Felony?

As a driver, you are expected to abide by the laws of the road. This means when you are repeatedly found to be operating a vehicle while intoxicated, you could suffer greater consequences.

You could face a felony DUI if:

• The charge was your third within 10 years of the second DUI conviction
• This was your fourth DUI

Those penalties can also be enhanced if there was a child under the age of 14 in your vehicle at the time of the arrest, or if you caused any injuries or damage to property.
