it all matters what county in cali he was popped in. ventura is the worst. he wont go to jail for #1, beyond booking unless he blew above a .2
in ventura county you have the option of 40 hours of community service of 48 hours in jail. i did the community service.
he'll have to pay court fines, go to alcohol classes and depending on the county go to AA meetings and pay for getting arrested.
he also has 2 hearings, a criminal one and a dmv one. best thing he can do is go to a mom and pop insurance company sign up and and get an SR-22 form. this is a rat sheet that tells your ins. company you got a dui. if he gets one from someone other than his current ins. company he won't get fucked (dropped, higher fees) by his ins company.
best thing he can do is get a lawyer. top gun dui myles burman is a rip off.
it also stays on his record for 10 years and it's pretty much zero tolerance. if something happens and he blows anything he'll get dui #2. if you are at a stop light and someone rear ends you and you have booze on your breath, you're at fault. it's really easy to get a 2nd dui.
