What DWI Laws Might Mean For Drivers?

Laws related to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI), also known as driving while intoxicated (DWI), vary from state to state. Most states have tough DWI laws because they want to discourage drunk driving, especially among underage drivers and because deaths in DWI-related accidents have continued to rise in recent years.Blood Alcohol LevelIn most states, a driver is considered intoxicated if his blood alcohol level is above .08. Police can test a driver's blood alcohol level by conducting a breathalyzer test, in which the suspect must blow into a blood alcohol meter. Underage drivers usually are not allowed to drive with any amount of alcohol in their blood, and in some states drivers may be required to have a lower blood alcohol level if they have a minor in the vehicle with them.Consequences of DWIThe consequences of being convicted of DWI depend on how often the driver has been convicted of this offense within the past seven to 10 years. DWI convictions usually lead to jail time; the Department of Motor Vehicles also suspends the driver's license for a period of time. Second and third offenses lead to longer sentences than first offenses, and if a driver is convicted of DWI more than three times in a seven or 10 year period, the driver may lose his license permanently. Drivers may also have to make financial restitution to victims if they were involved in an accident while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.Per Se ConsequencesMany states impose "per se" consequences, meaning that if a driver is charged with driving while intoxicated, the DMV immediately suspends his license. The suspension can be overturned if the driver is acquitted of the accusation after trial. Drivers should also be aware that in many states, refusing to submit to a breathalyzer or other blood alcohol test is considered an automatic admission of guilt; the driver will be charged with DWI and the DMV will suspend his license.What to DoIf a driver is charged with DWI, he should contact his lawyer immediately. Attorneys have specialized knowledge of the DWI laws in a given state and can more successfully defend a driver against DWI charges or get a sentence reduced than a driver can on his own. The driver should not drive unless he gets a temporary license or notice of reinstatement of license from the DMV, as driving on a suspended license is considered a serious crime in most states.


Can a parent legally give alcohol to their minor child?

By the book: Maximum 1 year loss of driver's license, up to 12 months in jail, up to $2500 in fines. Generally, a guilty verdict will entail loss of driver's license for 6 months - 1 year, no jail time, $500 fine. If this is first offense, you might be offered ASAP classes, probation for a year and loss of license, no fines. Record will be dropped upon successful completion of probation. Also in VA - you might ask for a restricted license which will allow a person to legally drive to and from work only while license is considered suspended for all other purposes.


How long can you legally drive on your US driver's license in Ukraine without an International Driver's Permit or getting a Ukraine license?

technically the international driving license does not work in Ukraine, it is not under the nations that signed the agreement, but the cops MIGHT leg you drive if you get caught for any illegal action. This is a big if/might. As for your US driving license, it's not really honored either. The only thing to remember is that you should put insurance on your car and you will need to get a Ukrainian permit, which is a pain in the butt.

What happens when a cab driver is arrested?

I'm not sure what direction your question is going so you may need to add more detail to the discussion page. I'd assume if a cab driver is arrested and he owns his own cab, the vehicle would be towed. If owned by a company, the police might contact the company rather than towing the vehicle. Depending on the charge or conviction, a driver might lose his hack license as well as receiving points against any state driver's license if the arrest concerned a driving infraction. If the incident involved drugs or alcohol use while driving, the company could fire the employee. You should be able to go to the official government website for the State in which you work and read the rules concerning a hack license.


What are the liabilities of a liquor license holder?

Whether you serve alcohol beverages in a restaurant, bar, or convenience store, you are liable and responsible if your employees, customers or patrons, guest and friends become intoxicated or cause damage to himself/herself, others and property.
