San Fernando DUI Felony

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Los Angeles DUI defense attorneys know that most DUI crimes are charged as misdemeanors, not felonies.  However, certain Los Angeles DUI crimes are charged as felony DUI and can carry serious, life changing repercussions.  Felony DUI crimes can lead to years in prison, crippling fines, driving restrictions, loss of license and much more.  If you are charged with a felony DUI in Los Angeles, you need a qualified Los Angeles DUI defense attorney.
Felony DUI crimes include:
  • Being charged/convicted of your fourth or subsequent DUI
  • Being under the influence and getting into an accident which injures someone in the other vehicle
In such cases, you can be charged with manslaughter should there be a death.  In fact, in one such case, a young man's life may pretty much be over due to a felony DUI.
A young man was arrested and charged with felony DUI after hitting and killing three bicyclists, one of whom died at the scene.  The young man was allegedly driving wildly, weaving in and out of lanes, hitting medians, hitting a chain linked fence and then running through an intersection in Santa Clarita.  The young man allegedly plowed into a group of ten bicyclists from Santa Clarita, hitting three of them, and then sped off. 
Police investigated and found the truck with markings that linked the driver to the scene of the crime.
