In Connecticut, which of these may be ordered as a penalty for drunk driving (DUI)?
Correct answer: Mandatory participation in the Impaired Driver Intervention Program (IDIP).
Answer options
- AA lifetime ban on driving, imposed even for a first offense
- BA small $25 fine, with no license suspension or other penalty of any kind
- CMandatory participation in the Impaired Driver Intervention Program (IDIP) Correct
Why
In Connecticut, a drunk-driving conviction can require the offender to complete the Impaired Driver Intervention Program, which provides education and intervention for impaired drivers, in addition to fines and license sanctions. Real DUI penalties are far heavier than a token fine, and a first offense does not bring a lifetime ban.
