Depends on what type of DWI it is. Most often it will be a misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor unless there were injuries/deaths.

It depends upon the state and the circumstances. In California a DUI can be charged as a felony if there was an accident in which somebody other than the driver was hurt, or if it is the 4th DUI within 10 years.

It depends on the state, circumstances(accident or just pulled over), and how many you have had in the past.
Why don't you take a cab or just drink at home from now on.

i believe NY has a 3 strikes rule unless that was replaced by zero tolerance, 3rd one is automatic jail time, first is a suspended liscence but not a felony i don't think.

Depends on the state. In NJ, it's not even a crime; it's a Motor Vehicle offense. But agin it all dpends on which state you live in.
