About Colorado Drunk Driving Accidents

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 30 million Americans drive drunk in an average year.

Driving while intoxicated impairs one’s ability to drive safely and responsibly, and increases the chances of a motor vehicle accident.

Colorado has two levels of alcohol-related driving offenses – Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI).

Both are based on the measurement of blood alcohol concentration in the body.

Someone who is accused of driving under the influence (DUI) has allegedly consumed alcohol and/or drugs to the point where they are substantially incapable of operating their vehicle safely.

Someone driving while their ability is impaired (DWAI) has consumed drugs and/or alcohol and is less able than an ordinary person to safely operate their vehicle.

Driving with a blood alcohol content level (BAC) above .08 is illegal in the state of Colorado, and amounts to DUI.

While there are criminal penalties for drunk driving (e.g., fines, imprisonment, and public service requirements), the Tenge Law Firm, LLC specializes in pursuing financial compensation in civil court, possibly including punitive damages, from the responsible party.

Hiring a Drunk Driving Accident Attorney

DUI and DWAI cases require the legal services of an exceptionally sharp attorney.
