Denver DUI Attorney
Colorado DWAI Lawyer
If you have been charged with a DUI or DWAI you face the possibilities of jail time, fines and losing your license. Once convicted of a DUI or DWAI it will stay on your record and can affect many aspects of your life.
In Colorado it is illegal to operate a vehicle if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is above 0.08 or you consumed alcohol or drugs (or both) to a degree that you were substantially incapable, either mentally or physically to exercise clear judgment, sufficient physical control, or due care in the safe operation of a vehicle.
DWAI or Driving While Ability Impaired applies in situations where one has been drinking and/or taking drugs and it affects his or her to the slightest degree so that he or she is less able than the person ordinarily would have been, either mentally or physically, to exercise clear judgment, sufficient physical control, or due care in the safe operation of a vehicle.
