DWI vs. DUI

Is DWI different from DUI?

Yes. North Carolina does not recognize DUI, or Driving Under the Influence. DWI, or Driving While Impaired, is not limited to alcohol consumption. It includes both illegal and prescription drugs as well as alcohol.

Driving While Impaired is also not limited to passenger vehicles. A person can be charged with DWI on a riding lawn mower, ATV, or even a bicycle.

To read North Carolina's DWI laws for yourself, use the following links.

Transporting an Open Container
Impaired Driving
Impaired Driving of Commercial Vehicle
Habitual Impaired Driving
Driving Impaired Under Age 21

Bold labels are required.
