Which type of DUI is classified as a misdemeanor under ARS 28-1382A.1?

The classification of Extreme DUI under ARS 28-1382A.1 is accurate because this particular offense is defined as being committed by a driver whose blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is between 0.15% and 0.20%. This level of intoxication indicates a significant impairment, and the law treats it as a misdemeanor rather than a felony, which corresponds to the seriousness of the impairment relative to standard DUI incidents.

In contrast, other classifications such as Super Extreme DUI, which involves a BAC of 0.20% or higher, and Aggravated DUI, which may involve certain aggravating factors such as prior DUIs or having a minor in the vehicle, are classified under more severe penalties. Standard DUI typically corresponds to a BAC of less than 0.15%, which can still carry consequences but is categorized differently. Thus, the designation of Extreme DUI as a misdemeanor aligns with its criteria and legal implications as established in the statute.
