But, they are a class 4 felony if a person receives 3 or more prior convictions for DUI, DUI per se, DWAI, Vehicular Homicide, Vehicular Assault or any combination of these. A felony DUI or DWAI conviction is crippling. Convicted felons suffer when trying to apply for a job, apartment, or security clearance. Potential employers and landlords are often unsympathetic towards those who have a criminal record. Additionally, parole is added to any prison sentence for DUI / DWAI, and if a person wants to drive while on parole, they must have an interlock ignition device installed in their vehicle. The 6-year prison sentence to DOC does not include other charges which we frequently see with DUI charges, such as Vehicular Assault or Hit and Run.
