Once you have been found guilty of drunk driving, you can expect to have problems obtaining auto insurance and, assuming you can find a company willing to insure you, your rates are sure to skyrocket. In fact, it’s not uncommon for convicted DUI offenders to pay two to three times more for coverage than a driver with a clean record.
Along with paying more for insurance, a drunk driving conviction can seriously impact your opportunities for the future.
