DUI & DWI Laws in Pennsylvania 

Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) are serious offenses that involve operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. In many states, including Pennsylvania, DUI refers to driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher, while DWI may be used to describe a range of intoxication. Penalties for these charges can include heavy fines, license suspension, mandatory alcohol education programs, and even jail time, depending on the severity of the offense and any prior convictions. It's crucial for individuals to understand the laws in their state.

What to do if you are stopped?

If you have been pulled over by the police, there are several ways that you can help yourself.

​

  • Remain calm. Police officers can interpret nervousness in your voice as a sign that you are hiding something or are intoxicated. Whether you have consumed alcohol or not, remaining calm is a good way to ensure that police officers do not question your sobriety

  • Always have a clean center console or glove box. Fumbling through these compartments to find your registration or insurance can be misinterpreted as intoxication. Keeping the glove box or center console neat and clean allows you to swiftly grab your identification and present it to a police officer.

  • Do not consent to a search of the car. Any evidence found in your car could be used to support a DUI conviction, so do not allow the officer to perform a search.

  • Contact a DUI/DWI attorney immediately.
