The Cost for first offender for DUI

The moment you drink and drive, you better start thinking about how much it will cost you. For instance, if you get pull over by a police officer and get arrested for DUI. The bail can cost between $150 to $2500 dollars and that is the start. Because you have been arrested for DUI and would have your car towed. Now you have to pay for the towing company as much as $1200 and for some reason you can not pay the towing company to get your car. The city has the permission to auction your car and the city keeps all the money from your car.

Lastly, you insurance premium will jump. Your car insurance company has all computer record with the police department and the car insurance company will know if someone got a ticket or been arrested for DUI. Once your car insurance company finds out about the DUI, you will have to pay higher premium and in some cases, your car insurance premium may triple. Your car insurance company may even drop you completely. When that happen you would have to go somewhere else and pay even higher premium just because you got arrested for drinking and driving.
