Greg Is 18 Years Old and Has a Drinking Problem

question 66

Multiple Choice

Greg is 18 years old and has a drinking problem. He dropped out of high school and doesn't have a steady job but picks up bits and pieces of work when people are hiring for the short term. Recently he was arrested for driving while intoxicated, but before the police stopped him Greg ran a stop sign and got into an accident. The driver of the other vehicle ended up in serious but stable condition in the hospital. The biggest problem is that Greg is a repeat offender and has two previous driving under the influence (DUIs) arrests on his record. The judge decides that Greg has used up all of his chances and decides to sentence him to a more serious punishment but one that he can revisit at a later date. Part of Greg's sentence was to pay for the damage to the car that he hit. What's one way he could do this without a steady job?

• A) Day fines
• B) Restitution
• C) Community service
• D) Residential fines
