DUI with a child in the car? (Legal Analysis)

Описание: More info at https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/defense/... A former cop & former DA explain California law re DUI with a child under 14 in the car (the child endangerment enhancement under Vehicle Code 23572)
The DUI penalty enhancement for having child passengers under the age of 14 only applies to cases where you have been convicted of Vehicle Code 23152 VC driving under the influence.
As DUI defense attorney Michael Scafiddi explains, "If your attorney can successfully fight your DUI case, the court cannot impose increased penalty for having a child passenger."
The penalty under Vehicle Code 23572 includes a minimum of 2 days jail time, in addition to the standard DUI punishment. But prosecutors cal also file a charge of felony child endangerment, which carries up to 4 years of state prison.
