DUI, or Driving Under the Influence, refers to operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs, including prescription medications. When a person’s ability to drive is affected by these substances, they may pose a risk to themselves and others on the road. Laws regarding DUI vary by state or country, but typically involve blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limits; exceeding these limits can lead to legal penalties such as fines, license suspension, or imprisonment. DUI emphasizes the importance of responsible driving and understanding the effects of substances on one's ability to operate a vehicle safely.
