A DUI stays on your record forever. However, pursuant to something known as the "look back period", a 2nd DUI will be considered as a first offense if more than 5 years have elapsed. This means that if your 1st offense ocurred more then 5 years ago, your most recent offense will be treated as though it were your 1st for sentencing purposes.
