Drinking and driving is the act of driving a vehicle after consuming an alcoholic beverage or while consuming one. It is often confused with drunk driving and the other terms identified above.

Several anti-drink-driving advertising campaigns have aimed to raise awareness of the legal situation and the dangers of driving while intoxicated. Drunk driving is responsible for a very large number of deaths, injuries, damage and accidents every year.

The specific criminal offence may be called, depending on the jurisdiction,
driving while intoxicated (DWI) or driving under the influence (DUI). Such laws may also apply to boating, or piloting aircraft. Defensive Driving Online

Guilt may be established by subjective tests of the driver's impairment, or measurement of his blood alcohol content (BAC). This is expressed in terms of milligrams of alcohol per millilitres of blood, or as a percentage. (10 mg/100 ml = 0.01 g/100 g = 0.01 %). DUI Lawyers in Washington

DUI / DWI

Driving after consuming alcohol is generally not illegal unless the driver's ability to drive safely is impaired as defined by law.

Driving while consuming alcohol is often defined as illegal, irrespective of whether or not the driver is impaired. In some jurisdictions it is also illegal for an open container of an alcoholic beverage to be in the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle or in some specific area of that compartment.

All states have an illegal per se limit of 0.08%. Some states also include a lesser charge — often known as driving while impaired — at a BAC of around 0.05%. Also, in all states, drivers under the drinking age of 21 have committed a drunk driving offence if they have any alcohol in their blood (set at .00%, .01% or .02% to be meaningful). DUID is driving under the influence of drugs.
 

The limit for aircraft pilots and commercial drivers is 0.04%.
