The term "multiple offenses" is used to describe a repeat offense of DUI because it accurately categorizes instances in which an individual has been charged with driving under the influence more than once. Each subsequent offense shows a pattern of behavior and is treated more seriously in legal contexts.

When an individual is charged with DUI for the second time or more, it reflects their repeated disregard for certain laws. This term encompasses any number of offenses beyond the initial charge, indicating a history of violations rather than focusing on the specifics of any particular offense.

In contrast, the other options refer to concepts that do not specifically denote repeat offenses. "First-time offense" clearly indicates the initial charge and does not pertain to repeat violations. "Class B misdemeanor" relates to the legal classification of certain offenses but does not imply anything about frequency of offenses. "Second-degree DUI" may refer to a specific classification or severity of a DUI charge but is not a standard term for repeat offenses overall. Thus, "multiple offenses" is the appropriate term to describe repeat DUI charges.
