Certain circumstances can elevate the penalties for a first-time DUI. These include having a Blood Alcohol Level (BAC) of .15 or higher, or having a minor under the age of 18 in the vehicle at the time of the stop. In these instances, Florida law mandates higher fines and the mandatory installation of an Ignition Interlock Device (IID) for at least six months upon the reinstatement of your license.
