LEGAL TIPS

Alabama DUI Statistics :
In 2006, more people died on Alabama roads than during any other year in over three decades. Not all of those fatalities were caused by drunk drivers, but the state must get the worst drivers off the road first and then go after others whose presence constitutes a threat to public safety.

DUI & Driving Under The Influence:
Alabama DUI Priority :
Under the Alabama drunk-driving law, it seems the first three convictions are treated as misdemeanors, for which the guilty can go to jail for up to a year. However, a fourth conviction is a felony, which can draw a sentence of up to 10 years in jail.

DUI - DWI - ODWI? :
Unlike DUI, DWI, or OWUI cases that involve alcohol, there is generally no per se or legal limit that is employed for persons accused of driving under the influence of prescription medication or illicit drugs (although this is not the case in Ohio[citation needed]). Instead, the key inquiry focuses on whether the driver's faculties were impaired by the substance that was consumed. The detection and successful prosecution of drivers impaired by prescription medication or illegal drugs can therefore be difficult.
