Will my rate increase with a DUI/DWI conviction?

Bob,

A DUI conviction may also carry indirect penalties, such as increased

automobile insurance rates and limitations on future employment opportunities.

Of course, employment opportunities may be naturally limited by the

transportation problems created by a DUI license suspension, but increasingly the conviction itself may preclude work in certain fields or with certain companies.The powerful lobby of organizations like MADD bringing constant publicity to the issue, and the growing ease with which employers can conduct criminal background checks, that impact is spreading beyond fields directly requiring a clean driving record.

Excellent Question.
