What is Aggravated DWI in New York and What are the Penalties? - Rachel Kugel
Manage episode 462515117 series 3376163
From The Kugel Law Firm - In this episode, we explore the key points from the article, "What is Aggravated DWI in New York and What are the Penalties?" Aggravated DWI, or AGG DWI, is a serious charge in New York that applies when a driver’s blood alcohol content (BAC) is 0.18% or higher, more than double the legal limit of 0.08%. With penalties including mandatory fines, license revocation, and potential jail or prison terms, this enhanced offense can have lasting impacts on a person’s criminal record and life.
We discuss the legal framework surrounding aggravated DWI under VTL §1192(2-a), including scenarios that escalate the charge, such as driving with a child under 15 in the vehicle. Penalties for aggravated DWI range from misdemeanors for first-time offenders to felonies, including class E and class D felonies, for repeat offenses within ten years. These charges come with harsher consequences, such as mandatory driver training programs, higher fines, and felony-level incarceration in state prisons.
The episode also covers the importance of legal representation when facing aggravated DWI charges. We highlight defense strategies, such as challenging chemical test results, questioning probable cause for the traffic stop, or addressing Miranda rights violations. With the right legal approach, it may be possible to negotiate charges down to a regular DWI, a DWAI, or even a non-criminal traffic violation, depending on the mitigating factors and evidence.
