"Studies focusing on various states around the country have found the average cost of a DUI conviction to range from $5,000 to $20,000, and some of those costs are increasing.
Illinois is one of the few states providing an official estimate of average DUI costs. The typical Illinois DUI conviction costs the drunk driver $14,660. That average takes into account lost work time and attorney fees. " http://www.totaldui.com/dui_articles_cost_of_dui_c...
"The minimum cost of a first conviction for DWI in New York State is estimated at $9,500. " http://www2.potsdam.edu/hansondj/DrivingIssues/110...
Texas - "The average cost for just pleading guilty is at least $5,206.14, not including your attorney fees, or how much your insurance company will surcharge you." http://austindwi.com/dwi-facts/dwi-conviction-cost...
Fines and fees vary widely among the states, hence the disparity in averages.
