Specifically, if the third offense occurs within a ten-year period and involves a high blood alcohol concentration (BAC) or results in injury or death, it can lead to more severe penalties, including significant fines and potential imprisonment. The severity of the penalties reflects the state's approach to repeat offenders in order to enhance public safety.
