Car permit · Alcohol and drugs

In North Carolina, which of these can be required of a driver convicted of DUI?

Correct answer: Attending ADETS, the Alcohol and Drug Education Traffic School.

Answer options

  1. AA $100 fine, with no license loss or any other penalty
  2. BA five-year license suspension for a first offense
  3. CAttending ADETS, the Alcohol and Drug Education Traffic School Correct
  4. DA jail term of just 12 hours for a first offense

Why

In North Carolina, a person convicted of impaired driving must get a substance abuse assessment and complete the education or treatment it calls for, such as the ADETS course, on top of fines and a license revocation. A first offense does not bring a five-year suspension, and the punishment is never limited to a small fine.
