In the United States, if you are arrested for drunk driving or commonly known as DUI (Driving Under the Influence), there will be heavy consequences that will cost you a lot of money in order to get your driving privileges back. Not only convicted drunk drivers have to appear in court, paying of fines, having their driving license suspended, they will also have to bear the cost of going to DUI School. They are also required to be evaluated and treated for a drinking problem and paying higher insurance premiums. In many states, they are also required to install an interlock device on their vehicle.
