Friend, DUI in 2011, has paid at least $16,000 in the 18mos since, not to mention probation, and interlocker on his car that he has to pay MONTHLY for... Total expected to climb above $18,000 before he is free and clear later this year. On average, as of 2012, a DUI in CO will end up costing $12,000 for non-injury/non-accident DUI charge. Drug charges don't cost that much.

Oh I know they CAN be stiff................A lawer will NOT be able to get you out of the mandatory Jail time with my idea. Think good old Todd will pay $18k???????????????????????????
