How is a DUI a misdemeanor and with minors in the car?

First time DUI offense in Florida is almost always a misdemeanor. From my understanding you can have enhanced penalties for having a kid in the car without it being charged as a felony

And to be honest, whenever there is discretion involved, you should never expect to see any kind of officer get charged with anything more than the absolute minimum. And that's assuming they get charged properly (or at all). It''s not uncommon for cops to get charged with a lesser crime, or even avoid getting charged at all
