On October 2, 2026, in Department 2 of the El Dorado County Superior Court, before the Honorable Judge Smith, Dylan Miller pleaded no contest to felony driving under the influence (DUI) and driving with a license suspended due to a prior DUI conviction.
Miller also admitted to three prior DUI convictions, a high blood alcohol concentration allegation, and being on probation at the time of the offense.
An El Dorado County Sheriff’s deputy observed Miller crossing the fog line and double yellow lines while driving on Cameron Park Drive. During the traffic stop, Miller showed signs of alcohol impairment and acknowledged knowing his license was suspended, telling the deputy, “I know I am not supposed to be out driving right now.”
Miller refused to complete field sobriety testing. A subsequent blood test revealed a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.21%, more than two and a half times the legal limit of 0.08%.
Under the terms of the plea agreement, Miller will serve one year in county jail and three years of formal probation, including restrictions on alcohol use. His driver’s license was revoked for four years, with a three-year ignition interlock requirement and designation as a habitual traffic offender for three years.
The Court also issued a Watson advisement, formally warning Miller that driving under the influence puts lives at risk. If he drives impaired again and causes a fatal crash, he could face murder charges.
The El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office remains committed to holding repeat DUI offenders accountable and working to keep habitual impaired drivers off our roads to protect the safety of our community.
