Mid Range
What is Mid Range PCA?
Mid Range PCA is categorized by the Law as having an alcohol level between 0.08 and 0.149.
Being charged with a Mid
Range PCA is still regarded as a serious matter. If you are convicted by the
court, there are severe penalties including going to goal. There are
important factors that influence the magistrate who is sentencing you. One of
these is whether you have been convicted for any level of a PCA offence in the
previous 5 years.
What can happen to me if
I am found Guilty of a Mid Range PCA?
There are a number of
penalties the Magistrate hearing your matter may impose on you. These include:
- A fine
up to $2,200 for a first offence, or up to $3,300 for a second or
subsequent offence.
- Maximum
goal sentence of 9 months for a first offence or 12 months for a second or
subsequent offence.
- An
automatic disqualification of your licence for 12 months which can be
reduced by the Magistrate to a period to a minimum of 6 months, if it is a
first time offence. For a second or subsequent offence, there is an
automatic disqualification of 3 years; however, a Magistrate has the
discretion to reduce this period to a minimum of 12 months.
