Drugged Driving Law

Drugged driving law refers to legal regulations that prohibit operating a vehicle while impaired by drugs, including prescription medications, illegal substances, or even alcohol. Just like drunk driving, drugged driving endangers the driver, passengers, and others on the road. Law enforcement can charge an individual with driving under the influence (DUI) if they show signs of impairment, fail sobriety tests, or have certain substances in their system. Penalties for violating these laws can include fines, license suspension, and even imprisonment, depending on the severity of the offense and whether there are any prior violations.
