In our lives we are faced with decisions each day that ultimately impacts our present, and our future. Whether we are deciding upon what we would like to eat today, whether or not we should have a night on the town, or simply if we should by the sweater or not; we are constantly faced with options that both can result in very different consequences. However, one decision that many individuals are making today is that of driving while intoxicated. When an individual gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle under the influence they are not only recklessly putting themselves at risk of being involved in an automobile accident, but anyone and anything else that enters their path.

The Facts of DWIs

Driving while intoxicated is one crime that varies very situational depending on many factors such as what substance you are operating your motor vehicle under, the amount of the substance you are under the influence of, the damage that erupted from the crime, as well as if you had any past DWI discrepancies. When you are charged, and later convicted of a DWI crime the consequences that are associated with the crime impact your life from here on out, which can cause you many issues within your personal, and professional life.

What You Can Expect

Recently, a woman was operating her vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, and had children present in the vehicle. In Texas, it is illegal to drive with a blood alcohol content over that of 0.08. Consequences associated with the crime also become harsher with a child under the age of 18 present within the vehicle. The driver of the vehicle proceeded to go through a traffic light after it turned red and was struck by oncoming traffic. As a result, the four children present in the vehicle were rushed to a hospital with serious injuries that were in relation to the crash.

Today, the woman is now being seen as intoxicated while behind the wheel and her case will soon be taken to court. However, if you are suspected of driving while intoxicated, or are falsely accused, you need an experienced, criminal defense attorney to fight for your rights, your case, and your life.
