Car permit · Alcohol and drugs
A driver is found guilty of drunk driving. Which of these can be part of the sentence?
Correct answer: Attending a substance abuse program approved by the court.
Answer options
- AAttending a substance abuse program approved by the court Correct
- BGetting a verbal warning instead of any real penalty
- CPaying a $100 fine and nothing more
- DServing a jail term of just 12 hours
Why
Louisiana courts require drivers convicted of DWI to attend a court-approved substance abuse program, alongside fines, loss of the license and possible jail. The real fines and jail terms are far beyond $100 or 12 hours, and a conviction never ends with only a warning.
