Here is a YouTube video if a DUI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxjPwHa4qY8

I am curious what is Victim Impact panel
I am guessing vehicle immobilization is that the vehicle can't be used
What is ignition interlock

From other videos what is jail credits, is that time served?

What is UK equivalent of .357bac and 0.095%

Presumably 357 in blood. 95 in blood. Limit in England is 80 in blood.

Jail credit is so-called “time off for good behaviour.” Not something we have in this country but some states in USA have schemes whereby the prisoner gets 10 days credit for each month served, subject to serving 85% of the sentence.

Yes, spent ages trying to find what the UK equivalent of the alcohol result is,

Google says an ignition interlock is a thingy for disabling the car if intoxicated, but how does that work, can she only drive cars with one fitted?

vehicle immobilization, it wasn't her car, well not registered to her so how can the courts immobilize it?

Victim panel, who was the victim?

Our coach drivers had a similar device - the driver blew into the device and you couldn't start the engine if it detected too many shandies on the breath..
Guess the courts would mandate she has one fitted on any vehicle that she drives..
