Understanding an Aggravated DUI in Tempe and Phoenix, Arizona
Under Arizona’s DUI laws, an “aggravated” DUI is basically a DUI with certain factors that are legally significant enough to turn your misdemeanor DUI charge into a felony. Some of the aggravating factors are:
- Wrong-Way Driver – If you are arrested for a DUI while driving the wrong way on a highway
- Passenger under 15 years old – If you’re arrested for a DUI and you had a passenger under 15 years old
- Multiple DUIs in 7 years – If you’re arrested for a 3rd DUI
- Driving Without a Valid License – If you’re arrested for a DUI and your privilege to drive is suspended, revoked or restricted
- Driving Without an Interlock Ignition Device – If you’re arrested for a DUI and you were limited to operating a vehicle with an interlock ignition device

What are the Penalties for an Aggravated DUI in Arizona?
The punishments for aggravated DUI vary somewhat depending on the particular aggravating circumstance. For example, a first offense of DUI while a child is in the car, is a Class 6 felony, but can actually be charged and punished as a misdemeanor albeit with a mandatory revocation of the defendant’s privilege to drive in Arizona. By contrast, aggravated DUI charges based on a third offense within seven years, while the driver’s privileges were suspended with knowledge is a Class 4 felony, carry a mandatory prison sentence, suspension of driver’s privleges in Arizona, more than $3,000 in fines, and two to five years of probation as the lightest available penalties upon conviction. Also, an Aggravated DUI conviction is a “forever” felony.
