San Diego DUI can cost $10,000

SAN DIEGO -- San Diego DUI drivers pulled over for San Diego drunk driving charges can expect a hefty bill, San Diego's NBC 7/39 reported Wednesday.



A San Diego drunk driving conviction will cost an estimated almost $10,000 in attorney fees, court fines, insurance and attending recovery programs.



Fines Up to $3,000 +
Statutory Assessment Penalties
Tow/Impound Fee $187.
Alcohol Education Class $500.
Auto Insurance Increase $7,300
Restitution Fund $100.
Attorney Fees $2500-4,500+
DMV license reissue fee $125.
Booking, fingerprinting and photo fee $156.
MADD class $20 (optional).



Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the California Highway Patrol and the California schools superintendent held a joint news conference Wednesday urging everyone to have a safe and sober celebration on New Year's Eve.



The group said $30 for cab fare is a lot cheaper than $10,000.
