According to the government website operated by the Florida Highway Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, under the section titled Florida DUI and Administrative Suspension Laws, a third conviction for DUI in the State of Florida within a 10-year period mandates a punishment of at least 30 days in jail.
