People who are found guilty of driving under the influence of drugs are subject to the same consequences as people who are found guilty of drunk driving. The penalties for a DUID conviction depend on the circumstances of the case.
The following are some of the potential penalties for a DUID conviction in North Carolina:
- First offense: Up to 120 days in jail and/or up to $500 in fines
- Second offense: Up to 12 months in jail and/or up to $2,000 in fines
Additional penalties for driving under the influence of drugs may include probation, community service, mandatory assessment and treatment for substance abuse, and the installation of an ignition interlock device.
These penalties increase with the presence of aggravating factors. Some aggravating factors include having a child in the vehicle, causing an accident, or having a prior DUID or DUI/DWI conviction.

Mr. Eustache is definitely the best lawyer in Winston-Salem, and probably the best in North Carolina. I was charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury with the intent to kill. I looked up lawyers on YouTube and came across Mr. Eustache. I visited his office and met with him and his team, and he made me feel confident and very comfortable. Long story short we won the trial "Not Guilty"!! And now I can resume my life with my family. So if your looking for a lawyer in forsyth county, do yourself a favor and give Eustache Law a call.
