Re: dui
The answer to your question is yes! There is a mandatory loss of license, a significant fine, a requirement to attend an alcohol education program at your own expense, and a signficant increase in and requirement for proof of insurance.
Given that there was personal injury, the police may determine to charge a more serios offense.
I suggest that hiring an attorney to review all of the facts would be a good idea.
