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.

DUI
& Driving Under The Influence: DUI Offense : What we're finding is that most accident are being caused by people who are not just .08 but double that amount, said Donna Hawkins, directors of the West Virginia chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Driving Drunk Statistics : According to the statistics, an increase in handed-out citations could have led to a decrease in motor vehicle accidents during the 2006-2007 fiscal year. While citations went down (930 to 773) from year one to year two, the numbers ballooned to 1,547 during year three.
