DUI Laws and Penalties - All 50 States
All U.S. states (minus Massachusetts) and the District of Columbia have per se laws defining it as a crime to drive with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) at or above a prohibited level, usually 0.08 percent. In the event of a conviction of DUI or DWI, the driver is subject to their license being revoked or suspended. In addition, some drivers may refuse to submit to a breathalyzer or other form of chemical test to ascertain their blood alcohol and drug levels, however, under administrative license suspension, these drivers have their licenses revoked even before a conviction for their lack of cooperation.
DUI / DWI Laws include:
- Illegal Per Se Laws
- Dram Shop Laws
- Minimum Legal Drinking Age (MLDA) Laws
- Zero Tolerance Laws
- Open Container Laws
- Administrative License Revocation (ALR) Laws
- Repeat Intoxicated Driver Laws
- Vehicle and License Plate Sanctions
Forty-three states permit some offenders to drive, but only if their vehicles have been equipped with ignition interlock. Ignition interlock devices will analyze a driver’s blood alcohol content and not allow ignition of the vehicle if the driver is found impaired. In 29 states, offenders may forfeit vehicles that are driven while impaired by alcohol.
