Over here, it could be as much as 2 to 3 months. Arrest, bail out, keep driving, finally go to court.
Now if you are at twice the legal limit, some counties won't hesitate to pull your license for the time of your probation.
Other counties, the drunks just pretty much pay the judges salaries. You are working, here is your ankle monitor. I know one guy that finally went to jail for DUI. He was 65 and they reduced 11 DUi's to 3. I didn't ask the time frame.
I will shut up now or I might start ranting.
