Florida Penalties for DUI First Conviction
Fine - $250 to $500
Community Service - 50 Hours
Probation - Not more than 1 Year
Imprisonment - Not more than 6 Months

Humm, I think the law makers got this one backwards. Keep in mind, there is 24 beers in a case. There is approximately 20 cigarettes in 20 grams.
