« Arrest Warrant Issued For Attorney Driving Under The Influence | Main  | Hit and Run Leads to DUI Charge »
  Woman Arrested For Alleged Felony DUI

Heidi Jackson, 47, was driving on Tuesday February 7, 2012 when she swerved into oncoming. Her vehicle hit a vehicle driven by David Daly, 59.

Daly swerved to try and avoid Jackson, and his vehicle swerved and overturned.

Both Jackson and Daly were taken by the paramedics to a medical center.

Jackson was later arrested and booked on suspicion of felony DUI.

Driving under the influence is charged either as a misdemeanor or a felony. A felony charge has more severe penalties and if you are facing a felony DUI.

Usually, a fourth DUI conviction, a DUI with injury or vehicular manslaughter will be charged as a felony in California.

A DUI with injury is considered a "wobbler" meaning that it can be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony depending on the severity of the injury and the blood alcohol level; this is within the discretion of the District Attorney and this is where we step in as your Los Angeles DUI Attorney and do everything we can to avoid a felony DUI charge.
