Under Florida law, a first or second DUI without any other aggravating factors is considered and prosecuted as a misdemeanor offense. However, if the impaired driver has caused severe bodily injury or death to another person, the first and second DUI can be charged as a felony.
If you’ve faced or already received a DUI conviction in Florida, your DUI stays on the record for 75 years, without the chance of being expunged.
