A DUI (Driving Under the Influence) conviction is a legal judgment rendered after a person is found guilty of driving a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. This can result in criminal charges and penalties such as fines, license suspension or revocation, probation, community service, and even jail time, depending on the severity of the offense and the laws of the state where the conviction occurred. In some cases, a DUI conviction can also result in mandatory alcohol or drug education classes, as well as an impact on insurance rates and future employment opportunities.
