For a fourth offense DUI, what is the potential fine range?

In Massachusetts, a fourth offense DUI (Driving Under the Influence) is treated as a serious crime due to the repeat nature of the offense. The established fine range for this level of offense is significant, reflecting the increased severity and the potential consequences for both the driver and the community.

The potential fine range of $1500 to $25,000 is designed to impose a substantial financial penalty, which acts as a deterrent for individuals to engage in repeated drunk driving behavior. The higher end of the fine range acknowledges the increased risk and harm associated with repeat offenses, and it underscores the state's commitment to addressing and reducing instances of driving under the influence.

In contrast, the other provided fine ranges do not align with the legal framework set for repeat DUI offenses in Massachusetts, which would not adequately reflect the seriousness of a fourth offense. This fine structure aims to encourage responsible driving behavior and promote public safety on the roads.
