Hold on There, Roy Rogers, It Ain't About Points!
That's right, pardner. A first-offense DUI in Oklahoma won't land you any points on your license. Instead, get ready for a license suspension party, lasting a whopping 180 days (that's six whole months of borrowing rides from your bestie or calling Ubers like they're going out of style). So, while you won't be racking up points, you'll definitely be racking up some inconvenience.
QuickTip: Revisit posts more than once.
But Wait, There's More! (Because Apparently DUIs Aren't Inconvenient Enough)
On top of the suspension, a DUI can come with a hefty fine (enough to make your wallet weep), court costs (because paperwork is never free), and mandatory alcohol education classes (time to brush up on your "how not to turn into a steering wheel sommelier" skills).
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Moral of the story? Don't drink and drive. It's a bad decision with a whole lot of not-so-fun consequences.
QuickTip: Read step by step, not all at once.
