You’re not familiar with the Florida laws and the courtrooms and judges can be quite intimidating. If you’re a repeat offender, you know there is even more at stake. First time offenders often get probation, fines or even attendance in alcohol or drug prevention classes. The penalties for second-time offenders are harsher, because judges have little tolerance for chronic offenders.
