Expertise with DWAI-Drug cases

While most people are aware of DWI and DUI cases, New York uses two terms for its cases: Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) and Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI).

DWI cases are more common and refer to people who are legally intoxicated by having a high enough blood alcohol content (.08 in our state), which is a criminal charge.

DWAIs, on the other hand, deal with impairments that come from a less than legal intoxication level from alcohol and is a non-criminal offense.

DWAI-Drugs is driving while ability impaired by drugs and is a criminal charge. This can include legal drugs, like prescriptions, that shouldn't be had while driving, and illegal substances as well.

While DWAI alcohol cases are less severe, the ones that involve drugs (DWAI-Drugs) are just as serious as a traditional DWI and can include jail time, fines, probation, and loss of your license.
