Here’s a sample of Pennsylvania’s statewide DUI grading and sentencing guidelines:

n First offense in 10 years — Depending on the level of impairment, convicted drunk drivers may be sentenced to pay between $300 and $5,000 in fines and serve between six months of probation and six months of jail time.

n Second offense in 10 years — Depending on the level of impairment, convicted drunk drivers may be sentenced to pay between $300 and $10,000 in fines and serve between five days and five years of jail time.

n Third and subsequent offenses in 10 years — Depending on the level of impairment, convicted drunk drivers may be sentenced to pay between $500 and $10,000 in fines and serve between 10 days and five years of jail time.

n Fourth and subsequent offenses in 10 years — Depending on the level of impairment, convicted drunk drivers may be sentenced to pay between $1,500 and $10,000 in fines and serve between one and five years of jail time.

And the penalties don’t end there — convicted drunk drivers could also face license suspensions and mandatory ignition lock devices, community service traffic safety courses and drug-and-alcohol assessments.
