| t*******n 发帖数: 2698 | 3 Both DUI and DWI are terms that refer to operating a motor vehicle while
impaired by illegal drugs or alcohol. The biggest difference between the two
is only in what the letters stand for. DWI is an acronym for driving while
intoxicated or impaired and DUI stands for driving under the influence.
Throughout the United States, the laws vary regarding how a DUI or DWI is
dealt with.
In some states, the drunk driving laws differentiate between a DUI and a DWI
, where the DUI is a lesser charge. In these states, a DUI usually signifies
a lesser degree of intoxication, which is determined by a person’s blood
alcohol level at the time of arrest. Sometimes, states will allow the
charges of a DWI to be reduced to a DUI with the help of a defense attorney.
In the case of a reduction from a DWI to a DUI, certain conditions typically
must be met, such as the incident being a first offense, the defendant’s
display of remorse for the action, and a blood alcohol level that was not
drastically over the legal limit. For example, New York State differentiates
between DWI and DUI by establishing a blood alcohol level of .08 as the
legal limit for DWI. If a person has a blood alcohol level of .07, the
charges may be reduced to a DUI, which carries a lesser punishment. | B*******e 发帖数: 1009 | 4 酒驾和醉驾?
