Any DUI where your BAC is at least. 08 can result in up to five years in prison and a permanent revocation of your license if you have a repeat driving condition offense (particularly, three years or more).

Explanation:

DUI - this means "Driving under the Influence." The influence is all about the alcohol and drug contents in the human's body. This happens when a person has either, or both, drug and alcohol contents in the blood while driving. When it comes to alcohol, this content is known as "BAC" or "Blood Alcohol Concentration."

If a person is found to be driving under the influence of alcohol, he will be prompted to take a chemical test. If his BAC is 0.8 or higher, he will be immediately facing the consequence of paying a fine of at least $500 up to $1,000 and a revocation of license of a minimum of 6 months to a year. This can result into 4 years in prison if it's the second offense. However, if a person has committed three or more repeat-driving offenses, especially if it caused a fatal crash or killed people, then he'd face a permanent revocation of his license. This means he cannot reinstate license anymore.
