Hello good afternoon..God bless here is the answer to your following question!.. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Minors (17 years of age or younger) with a BAC of . 02% or more may be charged with DUI and face a 6-month license suspension for a first offense as well as mandatory evaluation at an addictions facility or completion of an alcohol education program

If you are charged with a DUI as a minor, your penalties will not end when you finish community service, jail time or the other penalties meted out to you. Instead, you may find your adult life is significantly affected by an underage DUI you got when you were 16, 17, 18 or older.

A DUI does not have to ruin your life. If you get a lawyer, fight your case, and negotiate a good deal, you may be able to go on with your life with relatively little change. If your lawyer can win your case or get the charges dropped, you won't even have a DUI on your record.
