The DUI law states that upon a second conviction, the violator will serve not less than:

  1. 5 days in jail

  2. 20 days in jail

  3. 45 days in jail

  4. 60 days in jail

The correct answer is: 45 days in jail

Upon a second conviction for DUI in Tennessee, the law mandates that the violator serve a minimum of 45 days in jail. This harsh penalty is intended to deter repeat offenders and protect other road users from the dangers of impaired driving. It's important for all drivers to understand the serious consequences of driving under the influence and to prioritize the safety of themselves and others on the road.
