Understanding DUI & Vehicular Offenses in California
California law covers a wide range of driving-related charges — from simple DUIs to vehicular manslaughter. Here are some of the most common:
-
VC 23152(a): Driving under the influence of alcohol
-
VC 23152(b): Driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher
-

-
VC 20001 / 20002: Hit-and-run involving injury or property damage

VC 14601: Driving on a suspended or revoked license
Some of these offenses are misdemeanors; others can be serious felonies — especially when injury or death is involved. That’s why fast bail posting is so important — it gives you the opportunity to start working on your defense right away.

FAQ
-
Can someone get bail for a DUI in California?
Yes — nearly all DUI and vehicular arrests are bailable offenses in California. Whether it’s a first-time DUI or a felony DUI with injury, a licensed bail agent can post bond once the amount is set by the court or county schedule. Our Auburn-based team works directly with the Placer County Jail to post bail quickly, often within just a few hours.
-
How long does it take to get released after a DUI arrest?
In most cases, release occurs within 3 to 6 hours once bail is posted. For serious vehicular offenses, it can take longer due to case reviews and sobriety checks. Our local agents coordinate directly with jail staff to speed up the release process as much as possible.
-
What factors influence DUI or vehicular bail amounts?
Judges and law enforcement consider:
-
The severity of injuries or damage
-
The defendant’s prior DUI record
-
Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) or substance involvement
-
Whether minors were present in the vehicle
-
Risk of flight or public safety concerns
-
-
What happens after someone is released on bail for a DUI or vehicular charge?
After release, the defendant must:
-
Attend all court hearings and DMV appointments
-
Complete any court-ordered testing or treatment
-
Avoid driving under the influence
-
Stay in contact with their bail agent and attorney
We help clients stay organized and informed through every stage of the process.
-
-
Can a DUI become a felony?
Yes. A DUI becomes a felony if it causes injury or death, involves a fourth DUI offense, or if the driver already has a prior felony DUI. Felony DUIs typically carry higher bail amounts and stricter release conditions — another reason to contact a local bail agent immediately.
-
Can you get bail for vehicular manslaughter?
Often, yes — though it depends on the details. Vehicular manslaughter (PC 191.5) may qualify for bail, but gross negligence or DUI-related deaths can push bail above $500,000 or require a special bail hearing. Our agents will contact the court directly to determine eligibility and help expedite the process.
-
Can someone post DUI bail from another state?
Yes. You don’t need to be local to help. We can complete the entire process remotely by phone. Our agents will coordinate directly with the Placer County Jail or South Placer County Jail to post bail fast.
