Are you legal ? In 2004 actually all 50 states have established a formal or general legal level of alcohol in your blood. It is .08%. Howver lot of states including California are enforcing extremely strict zero tolerance regulations and laws for people who are less then 21 years old. These kinds of people are considered minors as per substance abuse regard. In state of California the DUI means you are simply under the influence of any mind altering substance such as alcohol. DWI however refers to you being impaired while driving. This for example could stem from drug or alcohol related charges and usually is the case.

Did you know that in California alone there were over 250,000 individual cases of DUI incidents during the year of 2007. This number is heavily on the rise and one of the major drivers is the bad examples uttered to teenagers through celebrities, especially Hollywood stars. In recent studies it has been shown that teenagers are heavily suspect and under lot of influence from media and celebrities about how to behave in DUI / DWI related incidents. We hope however that these numbers will change and that California will become more sober state.
