drunk driving laws in wisconsin
Additional penalties for OWI convictions
In addition to the provisions of the Wisconsin sentencing guidelines, which any Wisconsin Circuit Court can set aside to impose harsher penalties, there are certain conditions under which harsher penalties will usually result.
accidents involving drunk drivers
If an accident occurs as the result or involving a drunk driver, the courts usually impose harsher penalties than if no accident had occurred.
If there are injuries to any person involved in an accident as the result of or involving a person who was under the influence, the penalties will be harsher.
vehicular homicide while operating a vehicle under the influence
Vehicular homicide as a result of an accident involving a person who is accused to have been driving under the influence can be charged as a class D felony offense. If convicted, the penalties include very steep fines ranging upwards of $100,000, imprisonment for up to 25 years, or both.
