If convicted of a DUI (whichever one is 0.08 or under), what is the impact on ones insurance, for how long and can defensive driving alieviate that.
 


It depends. I got my SR22 insurance for the same cost as it was when I had a clean driving record and a good driver discount. This most likely has to do with my age and that I successfully completed alchohol rehab (school) and that there was nothing else on my driving record.

It can vary from no impact to being cancelled by your carrier, if they only insure drivers with clean records.
