Car permit · Alcohol and drugs

If you are convicted of DUI in Ohio, which of these penalties can you receive?

Correct answer: Attending a Driver Intervention Program (DIP).

Answer options

  1. AServing a 12-hour jail sentence
  2. BLosing your license for five years on a first offense
  3. CAttending a Driver Intervention Program (DIP) Correct
  4. DPaying a $100 fine as the only penalty

Why

Ohio can require a person convicted of OVI, its term for DUI, to complete a three-day Driver Intervention Program, which may replace jail time on a first offense, along with fines and a license suspension. A first offense brings neither a five-year suspension nor just a $100 fine, and the shortest jail term is three days rather than 12 hours.
