DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DWAI Alcohol vs. DWAI DRUG charges in Ithaca
(and New York)
"DWAI" stands for Driving While Ability Impaired.
Key points from the video:
1. DWAI alcohol is merely a VIOLATION (not a crime) --but DWAI Drug is a MISDEMANOR
2. The Punishment for DWAI alcohol is up to 15 days in jail...while the punishment for DWAI drugs is up to 1 YEAR IN JAIL!
3. In a DWAI drugs case (and not in an alcohol charge), the Prosecutor may use a highly trained drug expert against you.
