Under age drunk driving defense in Pierce County.

A person under 21 years of age can be charged with Tacoma DUI if their blood alcohol content (BAC) is measured at .02 or higher – a fact many find surprising. The penalties associated with a Tacoma minor DUI can be quite confusing, which leads some people to underestimate the severity of the charges.

Discretionary penalties for a conviction may include up to 90 days in jail and $1,000 fine, all of which are determined by the court. A Tacoma minor DUI arrest also brings into play Washington’s “Implied Consent” law, causing a suspension of your driver’s license for 90 days minimum if a hearing is not requested in the allowed 7 short days following the arrest. When the license is reinstated, the guilty party will also have to carry high risk (SR-22) auto insurance for three years.

It could be argued that the worst part of a Washington minor DUI conviction is acquiring a criminal record. While you may believe that future employers, creditors, and landlords will judge a minor DUI as a youthful mistake, the reality is that a criminal record may continuously haunt someone for the rest of their life.

There is more competition in the workforce than ever before, and it’s already hard enough for a young person to find a good job, even with a clean record. When an employer conducts a background check on a potential job candidate via the internet, what is most likely to happen when they see a criminal conviction for a Tacoma minor DUI on the applicant’s record? No job – which underscores how important it is to fight a minor DUI charge in Tacoma head-on, and with every legal tool at your disposal.
