Driving under the influence (DUI) is legally defined as operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs or alcohol; and/or operating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher. People may get stopped by law enforcement for suspected DUI if they exhibit certain erratic driving behaviors such as: swerving, disobeying traffic signs, disobeying traffic laws, running traffic lights, or weaving in and out of traffic lanes.
Before law enforcement can legitimately make a DUI traffic stop, they must have sufficient probable cause. Once a person is stopped for DUI, law enforcement will carefully evaluate the persons physical and mental condition. If a person is slurring his/her words, cant answer questions, has bloodshot eyes, or has open containers in his/her vehicle, law enforcement can further investigate the situation by asking the person to submit to a breath alcohol test or field sobriety tests.
DUI Legal Consequences
If a person is convicted of DUI, he/she faces a variety of legal consequences, which may include: jail time, fines, court and legal fees, DUI School, community service, and probation. Additionally, the person may lose his/her driving privileges for a set period of time.
