CAN YOU GO TO JAIL FOR DUI IN FLORIDA?

A first-time misdemeanor for a driving under the influence (DUI) conviction in Florida is punishable by up to 9 months in jail. Typically, a first conviction will not result in more than 6 months of imprisonment. However, if the BAC is above .15%, the imprisonment could be for as many as 9 months. Multiple convictions can result in periods of imprisonment greater than 9 months as well as permanent license suspension.
