DUI stands for driving under the influence and DWI stands for driving while intoxicated. Both mean the same thing. The specific criminal offense may be called, depending on the country or jurisdiction:* Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) * Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) * Operating a Motor Vehicle while Intoxicated (OMVI) * Driving Under the Influence [of alcohol or other drugs] (DUI) * Drunk In Charge [of a vehicle] (DIC)
Depends where, but in most situations it is considered a civil and a criminal offence.

Yes, expecially if you get an OWI (operating while intoxicated). Then you never get that one back, you have to get a new one after your suspension.
It is basically the same thing, every state is a little different, but basically Driving Under the Influence (DUI), Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), and Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) are generally all the same thing with similar punishments.
