First time potential DUI consequences in California are as follows: 3-5 years informal probation, up to 6 months in county jail, between $390-$1,000 in fines, 3 or 9 month court-approved alcohol or drug program, and a 6 to 10 month driver’s license suspension. The suspension may be converted to a restricted license, enabling drivers to get to and from work, school, and alcohol class. The penalties get more severe for each subsequent DUI conviction.
