It
is legal in all 50 United States to drive a car after drinking
alcoholic beverages if you are over the age of 21 years.
Despite this
fact, drunk driving is one of the most politically controversial
crimes, subject to constant lobbying by powerful groups such as
Mothers Against driving
while intoxicated (MADD).
As
a result, drunk driving is one of the most
aggressively enforced crimes on the Texas books.
What is drunk driving, driving under the influence (DUI) or
driving while intoxicated (DWI)?
Contrary to the term driving
while intoxicated, one does not actually have to be drunk to
be arrested and convicted of drunk driving.
Texas law states that a driver only has to have lost the
normal use of his mental or physical faculties by the introduction
of alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both to be guilty of driving
while intoxicated.
