A: Child endangerment creates a NEW DUI charge for EACH child, and these are stacked, end to end. So, with a DUI driver, and 5 children under age 14 in the vehicle, this is potentially 6 DUI charges, DUI #4, DUI #5 and DUI #6 will all be accused as DUI felonies.

If this does not convince you to get a TOP DUI LAWYER, I cannot think what would. Perhaps considering how many DECADES before this person will ever be able to drive, if at all. A 4th DUI for a Florida licensee is a lifetime ban on driving again.
