First I have to admit at .322 the woman was probably drunk as a skunk!!! That's almost double the legal limit of .15 which was used when DUI was invented in the early 1900's.
And of course 4 times the current low legal limit of .08 as the article said. But was there any need to charge her with 3 counts of DUI??? Equils ... faces charges of DUI, extreme DUI and super extreme DUI, according to the Paradise Valley Police Department.I suspect the extreme DUI and super extreme DUI laws were mostly passed to shake down people for money.
