Newark DWI Defense Attorney Rachel Kugel Explains Penalties for a Third DUI Offense in New Jersey
- Motorists charged with a third DWI in New Jersey face mandatory penalties including a 180-day jail sentence and an eight-year license suspension under N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.
- A DWI is considered a third offense if the driver has two prior convictions within ten years of the new charge, according to Newark DWI defense attorney Rachel Kugel.
- Judges may allow up to 90 days of the mandatory 180-day jail sentence to be served in an approved inpatient rehabilitation program.
- Attorney Kugel notes that a third charge is not the same as a conviction and that defenses exist at every stage of the case.
