This is a good point. I'm sure there were some "do you know who I am?" and phoning of friends in high places that resulted in other incidents not being recorded.

Drunk driving is not a felony. In Michigan I know a lot of people that aren’t super wealthy or anything that have upwards of 9/10 and not much happens because yes third offense is tech mandatory prison time but most times you plead to second first offense or other charges that skirt around this.

Again depending on the situation it can be plead down. That is just what he faced at the onset. Most people will take that and plead no contest to a lesser charge especially for first offense where they will do like 90 day restricted license and a hefty fine

If you have three convictions (on arrests made on July 1, 2008, and thereafter), then any subsequent conviction within ten years would be a felony DUI charge in Georgia. A felony DUI in Georgia is subject to imprisonment of not less than one year in jail and not more than five years in jail.
