What is the Difference Between DUI and DWI?

In the state of Texas, it's essential to understand the distinction between DUI (Driving Under the Influence) and DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) because these terms have different legal implications. DUI typically refers to cases involving minors (under 21 years old) who have any detectable amount of alcohol in their system while operating a motor vehicle. Texas has a "zero tolerance" policy for underage drinking and driving, which means even a tiny amount of alcohol can result in a DUI charge. On the other hand, DWI pertains to adults (21 and older) who are found to have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher while driving. While both DUI and DWI charges are serious matters, DWI offenses tend to carry more severe penalties, including higher fines and a greater likelihood of license suspension. Attorney Mark Falcon specializes in navigating these distinctions and providing expert legal counsel to clients facing both DUI and DWI charges in Texas.

Is It Possible to Get Past DUI Convictions Expunged or Sealed?
