OHIO has mandatory sentencing for those persons convicted of OVI/DUI! If you are convicted of a 1st offense OVI/DUI, there is a minimum mandatory jail sentence of 3 days; however, the Court can allow you to participate in a 72 hour (3 Day) Driver Intervention Program (also called Alcohol Intervention Program), in lieue so long as it is served at a State approved program.
These 3 day Ohio Driver Intervention Programs (DIP's) are often held at hotels and provide a welcome alternative to spending 3 days in the county jail. Most courts have a list of the driver intervention programs that they will allow you to participate in, however, if you live in an area other than where you were cited for your OVI/DUI offense, the information in this site will help you provide the court with the approved driver intervention program in your area of Ohio.
