DUI can be used as priors for up to 10 days. You need to hire a DUI specialist for the new case, and do it soon because you have only 10 days to save your license.

No. As long as your last DUI was more than 10 years ago, you should be fine.

No. DUIs are only priorable for 10 years. The new DUI will be treated as a first time DUI.
