DUI never gets enough attention. They take the DUI's and reduce them to reckless driving charges and the person gets their license back asap. Then when they get their 2nd DUI it only technically is thir "first" since the other one was reduced to the less severe reckless driving. Sometimes they can get several DUI's reduced before they finally stick. The more DUI's you get in a specified time the higher the penalties get. If they get reduced then they "start all over" each arrest. People wonder why some drivers have to be arrested for DUI 10-12 times before anything is done about it!
