What Are the OWI Penalties in Iowa?
Across the United States, it’s illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentration, or BAC, of 0.08 or higher. The state of Iowa has additional penalties for anyone caught with a BAC of 0.15 or more. You might get lighter penalties if this is your first offense, but if you have another OWI conviction on your record, you could be facing some serious jail time.
