Walla Walla DUI Driver Kills 68 Yr Old Kennewick Driver

Hopefully, you haven't experienced a DUI, but you've heard about how expensive it can be. A DUI in Washington State is a gross misdemeanour for the first offence. That's if no one is injured. Your fine can range from anywhere to about $1000 to $5000. You could even spend up to a year in jail. Again, that's if no one is injured.

Friday night a Walla Walla man accused of driving while under the influence, crossed the center line and hit the car of a 68-year-old man who was killed in the accident. For the whole story click HERE.

And of course, there's the money, the big, big fine.
