A drunk driver in New Mexico can expect two different cases to come out of his or her DUI: the criminal case and the Motor Vehicles Division case. Both are very serious. New Mexico, in fact, has some of the strictest penalties for a DUI offense. First time offenders will face up to 90 days in jail and a number of other penalties, especially if your blood alcohol content is over .16 percent. If you have four DUI charges within ten years, you’ll face a felony conviction and up to 18 months is prison.
