What is Driving Under the Influence of Drugs (DUI)?
According to Florida law, it is illegal for any person to drive a motor vehicle while under the influence of an illegal controlled substance, such as: marijuana, heroin, cocaine, methamphetamines, LSD, or Ecstasy. If a person is found to be operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs, he/she can be charged with driving under the influence (DUI) by Florida law enforcement. Just as it is illegal to drive while impaired by alcohol, it is also illegal to drive while abusing narcotics. In fact, driving while under the influence of narcotics is usually considered a more serious criminal offense than driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI).
Other Drug Crimes We Defend:
Under the Influence Legal Penalties
After a person has been arrested for under the influence of drugs, he/she will proceed through the Florida legal system. If found guilty of driving under the influence of drugs, a person will be subjected to a variety of severe legal consequences, which will adversely impact their quality of life. Some of these legal penalties include, but are not limited to: jail time, steep fines, probation, community service, DUI School, and even driver’s license suspension.
