Drunk Driving Lawyer Minneapolis

The act of operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol is called drunk driving and can result in a DWI charge. When an individual is driving while intoxicated, he or she has impaired mental and motor skills. Furthermore, DWI laws dont just apply to driving an automobile, but also applies to recreational vehicles such as ATVs, airplanes, and snowmobiles. Charges can also be brought against an individual when driving a boat while intoxicated and the penalties can be quite severe. It is important to seek the professional advice of a DWI defense lawyer if you have been charged with such a crime.
DWI law in Minnesota is classified into four classes. Those classes include:

First Degree DWI A First Degree DWI is committed in Minnesota when an individual has committed 3 or more violations at any point within the past 10 years or have had another felony DWI conviction.

Second Degree DWI If two or more aggravating factors were present at the time the crime was committed, then it is a Second Degree DWI. Aggravating factors are such factors as having prior convictions, minors in the vehicle, or if the test comes back .20 or greater.

Third Degree DWI If one or more aggravating factors are present, then it is a Third Degree DWI. All refusals to test are at least third degree.

Fourth Degree DWI In a Fourth Degree DWI, it is stated that it is unlawful for any motor vehicle to be operated in the state of Minnesota, including those on water. If one is under the influence of any controlled substance, a hazardous substance, has a blood alcohol level over .08, or specific controlled substances within their possession.

Each of these comes with its own penalties with the worst being that of a felony and prison and/or fines and the least severe being a misdemeanor with jail time and/or fines.
