Drunk Driving – DUI – DWI Laws
What is Drunk Driving DUI/DWI
?
Drunk driving, sometimes called driving while intoxicated (DWI) or driving under the influence (DUI), has two meanings:
* Driving with a blood alcohol level over the state’s maximum permissible blood alcohol limit. The legal limit for adults is either 0.08% or 0.10% depending on the State.
* Driving when your physical abilities are impaired by drugs or alcohol. In some cases, it makes no difference whether the drug is legal or illegal. If taking that drug impacts your senses of seeing, hearing, talking, walking and/or judging distances, you may be guilty of a drunk driving offense.
Common Drunk Driving DUI/DWI Tests for Intoxication
* Breath Test – Breathalyzer
