Under Minnesota law, a Second-Degree DWI charge typically occurs when an individual has two or more previous DWI convictions within a 10-year period or refuses a chemical test (Minnesota Office of Traffic Safety). An open bottle violation alone can add serious complications to DWI charges (FindLaw).
