The most common definitions include: * DUI - Driving Under Influence * DWI - Driving While Intoxicated * OWI - Operating While Intoxicated * OUI - Operating Under Influence * OMVI - Operating Motor Vehicle While Intoxicated Many casual drinkers often think that they can still drive after a few drinks, but in most cases they are wrong. Acceptable Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) levels vary across states. In Michigan, for example, the limit is set at a .08 BAC. It only takes 3 drinks to reach that level. As you can see, it doesn't take many drinks to impair your driving ability and send you over the legal limit. In fact, it might even take fewer drinks to reach the limit depending on your weight and size. If you have recently received a DUI, It is important that you know your rights.
- Moore, Scott: OPERATING WHILE INTOXICATED (OWI) - Operating while intoxicated (OWI), also known as driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI), driving while intoxicated (DWI), or drunk driving , is an increasingly common social problem in today's world. Throughout the state of Michigan and in all other jurisdictions across the United States, it is considered a serious offense and can lead to severe criminal penalties, including heavy fines, loss of driving privileges, and incarceration. The authorities in many states are currently cracking down on DUI offenses by reducing the blood alcohol content level at which a person can legally operate a motor vehicle. However, knowledgeable legal counsel can help you avoid hefty fines, license suspensions, or large insurance increases. Return to Michigan Drunk Driving Lawyers
