What charges are filed by the DA and to what severity would depend on the facts of your case and any other prior drug or alcohol related convictions. Even if this is a first offense, I would reccomend retaining a DUI attorney in your area as soon as you can. There are certain deadlines and timelines that must be followed in order to preserve your rights.

Answered by attorney David B Harrison (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Miller & Harrison, LLC
In Colorado to be guilty of DUI a person must be "driving" a motor vehicle, which has been interpreted to mean that they were in "actual physical control" of the vehicle. Seems to me you need to analyze whether a drunk person in a car with a 10 year old is in actual physical control of the vehicle, despite not being behind the wheel - was he directing the driving behavior of the 10 year old, helping in some way - and if so does that put him in "actual physical control". One could also ask whether the drunk person was committing child abuse by having the 10 year old drive?  Good luck.

Every background check starts with a driving record check. Your driving related convictions are typically transmitted to the Secretary of State within 48 hours of when they are entered in Court. Your's will show up by now.
