what does it mean that floridas dui laws are \progressive\?
○ penalties become more severe with each additional conviction
○ penalties become more severe with higher and higher bac levels
○ penalties stay the same regardless of conviction

Explanation:

To determine the answer, we analyze the meaning of "progressive" in the context of DUI laws. Progressive DUI laws typically mean that penalties increase with each subsequent conviction. The first option says penalties stay the same, which is incorrect. The second option refers to BAC levels, but "progressive" in DUI law context is about repeat convictions, not BAC. The third option, "Penalties become more severe with each additional conviction", matches the definition of progressive DUI laws (harsher penalties for multiple offenses).

Answer:

The correct option is the one with "Penalties become more severe with each additional conviction" (the first of the three option circles, labeled "Penalties become more severe with each additional conviction").
