  Driving Under the Influence

Driving under the influence is the criminal act of operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. The legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit, as well as other laws surrounding DUI, varies from state to state. The breath test, or breathylizer, may be used to determine whether a driver has drunk more than the legal limit. Penalties for driving under the influence are prosecuted at the state level. If you have been charged with driving under the influence, it may be in your best interest to seek help from a legal professional who specializes in DUI crimes.
