According to the Houston Chronicle over 30 people were arrested for suspicion of felony drunk driving by the Houston Police Department in March of 2018. That’s not counting those arrested by the Harris County Sheriff’s Office and other local agencies. If they’re convicted of their offense, they’ll face anywhere from 2 years to life in prison. Yes, it’s possible for habitual DWI offenders to catch a life sentence in Texas. In most cases defendants aren’t given such harsh sentences.
