As a new Waterbury Connecticut driver, nothing is more important than for you to understand the Waterbury Connecticut drunk driving, cell phone, and text messaging laws. In Waterbury Connecticut, the standard of DUI is lower for teens, and you only need to have a BAC of 0.02 (instead of 0.08) to be convicted. Upon your first conviction of a Waterbury Connecticut DUI, you face the following penalties:
- your Waterbury Connecticut license will be suspended for 3 months
- a $500 to $1000 fine
- 100 hours of community service
- mandatory alcohol education programs that adults face for DUI convictions
And of course, further Waterbury Connecticut DUI convictions will result in increased jail time, community service, fines, and Waterbury Connecticut license suspension or even Waterbury Connecticut license revocation.
A distracted driver is a dangerous driver. Thus, Waterbury Connecticut bans teen drivers from using a cell phone or text messaging while driving. As tempting as it may be to call or text friends and family, driving while using a cell phone carries a 30 day license suspension and a $125 license restoration fee plus court fines. A second conviction carries a 6 month suspension.
