Driving under the influence (DUI) and operating under the influence (OUI) charges are usually based on a person’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) which may be determined by the administration of a breath, urine, or blood test. In Massachusetts the legal BAC level is .08 percent for adults over 21 years of age. Any drivers under the age of 21 may be arrested for any traceable alcohol in the bloodstream.
Drunk driving has affected countless numbers of lives and are tried differently than regular traffic accidents. When alcohol is involved, it is considered an aggravating factor in the accident. An aggravating factor is a reason why someone who has been found or pleaded guilty should receive a harsher sentence. This is also something to increase the value of a claim beyond what it would have been had the aggravating factor not been a factor in the claim.
