I got 3 DUI's in less than 2 years, 1 of them on a suspended license and I only spent a weekend in jail total.(not counting time in detox)

Did you have representation? My general observation has been that, at least in my jurisdiction, the punishment for DUI is 4 to 5 times greater for individuals who do not get lawyers.

Yeah I got an attorney who specializes in DUI cases. I know probably 10+ people with 1-2 DUI's, and NONE of them have ever served more than a couple of weekends for a DUI because they got a lawyer.
If you can't afford it, the relative cost of a good attorney is worth taking out a loan for in cases like this.
