DWI

DWI stands for "Driving While Intoxicated," which refers to operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. It is a legal offense because too much substance in your system affects your ability to drive safely, increasing the risk of accidents. Law enforcement agencies use blood, breath, or urine tests to determine alcohol or drug levels. DWI laws aim to prevent accidents and protect public safety. Penalties can include fines, license suspension, or jail time, depending on the severity and jurisdiction. It's important to understand that any amount of impairment can impact driving abilities and has legal consequences.
