Dui Classes

DUI Classes can vary state by state. In California, a first offense DUI means you must complete a 9 month class. You must be enrolled in this program in order to receive a restricted driver's license. Either way, it is a mandatory class that the court orders you to take. For the most part, you sit in a room full of other people who where charged with a DUI. The counselor will go over the negative aspects of alcohol and drugs. In California these dui classes are around two hours for one day a week. If all programs are the same, then it alternates from one 2 hour group meeting the first week, and a 15 minute face to face meeting the second week, and so on. You also get to watch movies that are related to drugs, alcohol, and drinking and driving.

Also the cost for DUI classes, is about 1,400 dollars for a second offense dui, and slightly lower for a for a first offense. You are able to make these in payments as you go along in the program.

The DUI classes can be somewhat strict. For example, if you are late to your class, you will not be able to enter, you might as well head back home. One place charges you 15 dollars each time you miss a class, and you still must make the class up at the end of your program. If you miss three classes in a row, you will be terminated from the program and lose all the money you paid them. Also, you have a total number of classes that your are allowed to miss, some are around 10 classes, and if you miss more than that number you will also be terminated from the class.

The classes can be tedious, but they are rather easy. They take up your time, and can be inconvenient, especially if you have no license or transportation. Hope you learned something from this information on DUI Classes.
