If your blood alcohol content (BAC) measured .20 or higher after you were stopped on suspicion of drunk driving in Gilbert or elsewhere in Arizona, you are considered a suspect for "super extreme" DUI. Tough Arizona DUI laws recognize the serious impairment that this level of alcohol in the blood can mean.
Aggressive DUI defense in the face of "super extreme" DUI charges is likely to include:
- An examination into the circumstances of the traffic stop: Was the officer justified in pulling you over?
- A review of procedures the police officer used in administering field sobriety tests (FSTs) or chemical tests: Were your rights respected?
- An investigation into the validity of the test results. A .19 versus a .20 BAC test result can mean a great difference to your case.

A "super extreme" DUI conviction may bring the following consequences:
- Up to 180 days in jail
- More than $3,000 in fines on top of jail costs (which can easily be double or triple the fines)
- License suspension for 90 days (although a work permit is sometimes possible after 30 days)
- Up to five years' probation
- Ignition interlock on your car for 18 months after reinstatement of your license
A second "super extreme" DUI conviction will likely bring even tougher penalties: a 180-day minimum sentence, a one-year license revocation (with no work permit allowed) and a 24-month required installation of an ignition interlock device on your car, in addition to very substantial fines and fees.
