Michigan law outlines three levels of drunk driving offenses:

Level 1: Your first offense could result in a license sanction (such as a six-month suspension) and up to 90 days in jail.

Level 2: A second offense is when you accrue two drunk driving charges within a seven-year period. The second offense could result in a one-year jail sentence and an indefinite loss of your driver's license.

Level 3: If you have received three drunk driving charges within a ten-year period, you have committed your third offense. (These charges can include out-of-state offenses as well.) The third offense is considered a felony offense, and could result in a one to five years in jail and the permanent loss of your license.
