Arlington DUI consequences also include the social stigma with being charged and then convicted of a DUI. Being charged with a DUI shows that a person made a series of negative decisions, including consuming too much alcohol or too many drugs.
Second, it shows a person made the poor decision to get behind the wheel of their vehicle. This means that they have put their life in jeopardy, as well as the lives of everyone else on the road. In the age of Uber, ride-sharing, and public transportation, there is really no excuse for a person to use their own vehicle when they are intoxicated.
There is no emergency exception for DUI, meaning that just because a person felt they were under duress and they did not have another option to go home, it is never an excuse to operate a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
