Driving under the influence is charged when law enforcement suspects that you are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. These suspicions typically arise by law enforcement when they witness any dangerous driving or an inability to follow and obey traffic signs or laws. Once they notice this, or are alerted by a tip, you can expect to be stopped and questioned. During this questioning you may be asked to perform field sobriety tests, along with urine or blood/breath tests to determine your BAC (blood alcohol content). Anytime your BAC is 0.08% or higher you are considered above the legal limit and determined to be intoxicated.
