A Guide to Search Results for "California DUI"
The search term "california dui" is typically used by people who have been arrested for
driving
under the influence (abbreviated DUI) in the state
of California and are looking for legal
information and/or an attorney to represent them in their contacts with California's police, prosecutors, courts and
Department of Motor Vehicles. A
lesser number of people who use this search term have sympathies with those who prosecute people who stand accused of
DUI, and a certain amount of noise is introduced into search results for California DUI by Diving Unlimited International
(also abbreviated DUI), a prominent manufacturer and distributor of underwater diving equipment. The term
"dui" is a generic phrase which
usually refers to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs or a combination of the two. It is sometimes used
interchangeably with such phrases as "drunk
driving" or "dwi"
(driving while intoxicated), though "dui" is the most commonly employed term in California. It can also refer to
the offense of so-called DUI "per se": driving a vehicle with a
blood-alcohol content
of .08% or higher. In most cases, an arrest in California will result in a prosecution for both offenses.
