New Jersey law imposes a surcharge requirement that imposes substantial fines on all individuals who are convicted of driving while intoxicated (DWI) or driving under the influence (DUI). The surcharge applies in addition to otherwise applicable monetary fines and fees. For first and second offenders, the surcharge is $3,000, which is payable in $1,000 installments over three years. For third and subsequent offenders, the surcharge is $4,500, which is payable in $1,500 installments over three years.
