If you or someone you know just got arrested for DUI in Daytona Beach, the clock is ticking. The sooner you post bail, the sooner you can get home, get to work tomorrow, and start dealing with this the right way — with a lawyer, not from inside a jail cell.
DUI Bail in Daytona Beach
If you or a loved one has been arrested for a DUI in Daytona Beach, the arrest is processed through Volusia County's law enforcement system. Because Daytona Beach is located in Volusia County, anyone arrested here is transported and booked into the Volusia County jail facility, and the resulting legal case will be handled by the Volusia County court system. Under Florida law, a DUI charge is taken very seriously, and individuals arrested for this offense are not immediately eligible to walk out of jail on their own recognizance.
Instead, Florida law requires that you remain in custody until your bond is officially set. This occurs during a first appearance hearing, which must take place before a judge within 24 hours of your arrest. During this hearing, the judge will review the details of your DUI charge and establish the bail amount required for your release. Once the judge sets this bail amount, you can begin the process of securing a release from the Volusia County jail.
