Although in the past it was possible for a third-time or subsequent drunk driving offender to face misdemeanor rather than felony charges because prior impaired driving convictions did not count toward felony status and because even prior drunk driving convictions had to have occurred within 10 years of the current offense to be considered, this is no longer the case.
In Michigan, the statute defines prior offense to include OWI, OWVI, and all of the other drinking and driving offenses contained in section 625 of the Michigan Vehicle Code.
