DWI Cost Can Be $9,500

The cost of a first-time impaired driving conviction in North Carolina is more than $9,500. "There's no question that the smart money is on the sober driver," said Darrell Jernigan, director of the North Carolina's highway safety program. "If you're not motivated by the fact that driving while impaired is against the law, and dangerous, compare that $9,500 to what it costs to call a cab to make other arrangements to celebrate safely," he adds. The minimum tab for a first-time driving while intoxicated conviction in North Carolina includes: fines of $4,000, average yearly insurance increase of $2,600 and attorney's fees of $1,000.
