DUI and DWAI, charges claiming that a driver was impaired or affected by alcohol, marijuana, or other intoxicating substances, are some of the most common misdemeanor charges in Colorado. But they have serious repercussion, particularly for those with repeated convictions, which can lead to felony charges. Moreover, they are strict liability charges, meaning it does not even matter if the accused believed he was not too intoxicated to drive.
However, even if you or someone you love may have been charged with DUI or DWAI, there still may be defenses to these charges - for example, eyewitness testimony regarding one's demeanor, behavior, and apparent lack of intoxication, or questions about administration of testing may be presented as a defense.
