What should I expect for 2nd Dwi 5 yrs from 1st?
The case is in St.charles,mo state court I already took steps and have ignition interlock on my car for past 6 months for hardship license. I have been doing great with my IID monthly reports. My first case was amended to littering in a municipal court and I completed my 2 YR SIS without any violations.

I was pulled over for lights out infraction on vehicle, officer said you smell alcohol when I roll down my he then asked for my ID and requested I follow him to his vehicle. Where he did the breathalyzer test.
