Drunk Driving Felony

Can an American citizen with a Drunk Driving (OWI) conviction travel to Canada?

I don’t know if this is just a rumor, but as far as I know, from word of mouth, travelers can not visit Canada if they have a drunk driving conviction from their home country. I’ve heard this is due to the fact that drunk driving is considered a felony in Canada. And basically everyone I talk to in the US believes it to be true as well. I have researched Canadian websites, gov’t websites, traveling sites and can’t find anything definitive on the matter. Your help would be greatly appreciated, ‘cuz I’d love to visit.

I’m married to someone who works at Canada Customs and Immigration (now known as Canadian Border Services Agency) and he said that its really is up to the Customs Officer to decide.

Officially they do not allow people into Canada who have recent DUI’s (about the last ten years) if its older than that, something you did when you were much younger that often leaves it up to the Customs officer to decide. If the person has no repeat offences, if it was a simple DUI from long ago, did not involve a hit and run then its often the discrepancy of the Customs person then and there. If you do come to Canada, look to an older Customs person with experience. The younger ones tend to be trained with much more enforcement in mind, the older ones took their training when Canada did not have to worry about terrorism.

What is the punishment for a felony DUI with great bodily injury?

It happened in California.

A violation of Veh C 23153 (driving under the influence and causing bodily injury — it need not be great bodily injury) can be filed as a misdemeanor or a felony. As a felony it has a maximum sentence of three years in prison, as a misdemeanor a maximum sentence of one year in jail. For a first offense, probation is the most likely outcome. Whether prosecuted as a felony or misdemeanor, that will involve at least 5 days in jail, a fine in the area of $1,900, and a one-year license suspension. (Veh C 23554, 23556.) There will also be required restitution to the victim, unless the defendant’s insurance company paid for it (and a lot of insurance companies do not cover damages caused by drunk driving). That means that the defendant has to pay even if the victim’s insurance company also paid.

BTW, since “great” bodily injury is NOT required to commit this offense, it is NOT necessarily a “strike” (serious felony) under California law. (People v. Thoma (2007) 150 Cal.App.4th 1096.)

Felony Dui

If i have a felony dui in one state, will it still be a felony dui in a different state?

You cannot expunge a dui in Illinois, but if I relocate to a different state, will it be expungeable?

OK first off, a DUI is not a criminal offense it’s a traffic offense. And it’s a misdemeanor not a felony. I don’t think you can ever get a DUI expunged off your record. They changed the laws (not sure when but a long time ago) so that it stays on your license no matter what state for at least75 years-so ya not the rest of your life, but might as well be. And the charges get worse the more DUI’s you have.
