The DWI numbers, plain.

Move the slider through the offense count. New Mexico's escalator is statutory and stacks fast — these are base sentences before aggravated enhancements.

DWI ESCALATOR · NMSA § 66-8-102

Each conviction stacks. {tier.label}.

A felony is a different kind of case.

Years of incarceration. Loss of voting and firearm rights. Immigration consequences. Background checks that follow you. The earliest decisions — charging, preliminary hearing, suppression — are where felony cases are won or lost.

Base sentences only. Habitual-offender, firearm, and sexual / child-victim enhancements stack on top. First-degree felonies resulting in the death of a child carry life imprisonment.
