Your license is at stake!
Every state has some sort of "drunk driving" statute. The term "drunk driving" is in quotes because none of these laws require that you be "drunk" or "intoxicated" to be guilty. All that is required in California is that your ability to operate a vehicle has been impaired to any extent at all or that your blood alcohol level exceeds .08%. Some people call it DUI (Driving Under the Influence) or DWI (Driving While Intoxicated), but it refers to the same offense. The consequences of DUI differ drastically influenced by your age, blood alcohol level, if you refused to provide a blood or breath sample, if there has been an accident, if you have been arrested for DUI in the past, and whether you caused injury or death during the DUI.
