DUI Wisconsin Drug & Alcohol Rehab Treatment

The ‘per-se’ law of Wisconsin is, if your blood alcohol content is that of .08%, you can be charged with a criminal offense. This percentage constitutes that of being impaired, and you can also be prosecuted while driving under the influence. This can only happen if you are proven to have been driving in an unsafe manner. The evidence that can be used is the following:

• Slurred speech
• Blood shot/watery eyes
• Un-balanced co-ordination
• Hazardous driving
• Field sobriety tests

The state of Wisconsin has quite a bit of history, and has been historically labeled as the beer capital of the world. Wisconsin is home to some the United States largest brewers, and the state itself is very symbolic for Old Milwaukee, which made the city of Milwaukee famous, giving it the name brew city. In fact, Forbes.com voted Milwaukee to be America’s drunkest city. Don’t be fooled though, the state of Wisconsin’s legislators are setting harsher goals and getting tougher in enforcement for DUI charges all throughout the state.

This means that your blood, breath, and urine can be tested if you are under the suspicion of being under the influence of either drugs or alcohol.

After being charged in the state of Wisconsin you will face a criminal court, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (DOT), and License and Vehicle Services. If your license has either been suspended or revoked, you will be offered a formal hearing to plea your case.
