Absurdly, even a first offense charge of Driving While Intoxicated in Arkansas carries a maximum sentence of one year in jail. That's on top of increasing fines, court costs, and assorted fees. And then, of course, there's the collateral damage that the charge causes when it hits your record and follows you around on background checks. Crazy, isn't it? The exposure is only magnified for subsequent DWIs. This means that a person standing alone in front of the Judge, after being accused of the crime of Driving While Intoxicated in his jurisdiction, isn't worried about just the one year of jail time. Financial blows, loss of employment, potential custody issues, and the lingering damage of a DWI on background checks are all racing through their mind. As the Judge gazes down on you with all of that on the line, its enough to make anyone's hands sweat.
