AZ Aggravated DUI:
Quote:
Aggravated DUI does not refer to the blood alcohol level of the defendant; any level higher than .15 percent is charged as extreme DUI, unless additional aggravating factors apply.
? Aggravated drunk driving charges will be filed on the basis of certain circumstances of the incident or characteristics of the defendant, so long as a blood alcohol level of .08 percent can be proved. These aggravating factors include:
? A third or subsequent DUI offense within the previous seven years
? Any DUI offense charged if the driver had a suspended, cancelled, or revoked license when arrested
Any DUI offense charged while a minor younger than 15 years was in the vehicle
Drunk driving incidents resulting in serious injury or fatal accidents will be charged as aggravated assault, manslaughter, or negligent homicide, with the same penalties provided as for those serious felonies.
