A "wet and reckless" charge is a lesser offense than a DUI charge. It typically involves driving with some level of alcohol in the system but not enough to meet the legal limit for a DUI. A DUI charge, on the other hand, involves driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) above the legal limit, which is typically 0.08. The penalties for a DUI charge are usually more severe than those for a "wet and reckless" charge.

Is DUI consdered afelony?

A first-time DUI, (or, in some states, "DWI" -- short for "driving while intoxicated") is normally charged as a misdemeanor, not a felony. But if someone was injured as a result of the drunken driving, some states will raise the charge to a felony -- and if the victim dies, some of these states will charge the driver with reckless homicide. Also, in a number of states, a DUI will be raised to a felony if it is the driver's second, third, or even fourth DUI offense.
