The consequences of driving while intoxicated (DWI/DUI) conviction in New Jersey can be very severe. A driver, if found guilty of DWI, may be imprisoned and assessed a fine of up to $500. The first conviction for DWI could result in a loss of license for anywhere from three (3) months to a year. Furthermore, New Jersey assesses a surcharge of $1,000 per year for three (3) years to those convicted of DWI.
In New Jersey, drunk driving is not tolerated. A New Jersey driver is considered under the influence of alcohol with a blood alcohol content (BAC) level of 0.08. Therefore, it is very easy to go over the limit that the law allows.
