DUI offenses in Arizona are categorized by the level of blood alcohol concentration (BAC) or the presence of drugs in a person's body. BAC is determined through law enforcement's chemical testing of either a person's breath or blood sample. The testing is done after an arrest has been made, typically on-site in a DUI van or at a police substation.
Extreme DUI charges would be brought if the person was driving or in actual physical control of a vehicle with a BAC of .15-.199 within two hours of driving.
Extreme DUI charges carry heavier penalties than regular DUI charges due to the higher BAC. For example, a regular DUI corresponds to a lower BAC of .08-.149. Extreme DUI charges are class one misdemeanors, like a regular DUI. However, Extreme DUI convictions carry lengthier mandatory jail time, heavier fines, penalties, and a 20-day period of vehicle impoundment. A.R.S. 28-1382(A)(1).
