Probably be charged as a misdemeanor, but 23153 not 23152.

That is going to be decided considering the severity of the accident. .15 is almost 2 times the legal limit.

It's discretionary for the DA. Either way you need to hire a DUI specialist, and do it soon because you have only 10 days to save your license.

It's a misdemeanor unless there is an aggravating factor to increase the charge such as a minor being in the car or injuring someone.
