DUI/DWI Definitions

 

  • DUI/DWI is defined as driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • Drunk driving is the act of operating or driving a while under the influence of alcohol or drugs to the degree that mental and motor skills are impaired
  • It is illegal in all jurisdictions within the United States, however, enforcement varies from state to state
  • The specific criminal offense is usually called driving under the influence (DUI), and in some states ‘driving while intoxicated’ (DWI), or ‘operating while impaired’ (OWI)
  • Such laws apply to any motor powered vehicle including boats, aircraft, and motorcycles
  • All states have similar verbiage of their vehicle and traffic laws of the prohibition against driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • There are many sub-categories for this offense ranging from traffic infractions, to misdemeanors and felonies
  • BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) and other circumstances involving either a refusal to take a screening test, refusal of a breathalyzer or blood test, or whether drugs were the intoxicant factor heavily in what charges will result
  • Accidents, death and a variety of other circumstances may also factor in

 

A FORMER PROSECUTOR has been trained to build cases like the one you will be facing by the very same government now pitted against you. Get those years of experience on your side. They were trained to build cases, and they know better than anyone how to break them down

The results of a breathalyzer are often the most powerful piece of evidence used by the prosecution to prove your guilt in a court of law. However, breathalyzers are far from foolproof, and it is very possible to have the results thrown out if it can be proven that those results are inaccurate or tainted in some way. It takes a knowledgeable and experienced attorney to understand and utilize all the possible avenues of defense available to you to their fullest potential. Get yourself a FORMER PROSECUTOR today!
