Some states do and will transfer A DUI to another state.
Where I live, it can be recorded in two other states, so watch out!

I dont know but here's a tip. STOP DRINKING AND DRIVING!

depends on the state and time in between... in NC and WV, if you get a DUI and take the appropriate action to getting your license back, it's off your record in 5 years. In FL, a DUI stays on your record for 75 years.

Mostly it counts as stupidity and a hard lesson learned. States share records, especially felony counts. So it depends on the states involved.

Yes, unless the vehicle code translates the DUI in one of the states as something else (ie: reckless driving).
