Many drivers are intoxicated while behind the wheel. Drunk driving is illegal, but it is still common. On average, 32 people are killed in drunk driving accidents every day. 30% of traffic fatalities involve drunk driving. Drunk driving is something that affects everyone on the roadways, including passengers, other drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. People of all ages, from children to adults to the elderly, can be injured or killed in a drunk driving accident.
A DUI is known as operating a vehicle while impaired (OVI) in Ohio. An OVI is typically a misdemeanor, but there are some exceptions. If you have been convicted of four OVI offenses in 10 years or six offenses in 20 years, it becomes a felony.Â
As a misdemeanor, there is still a lot at stake. At the very least, an OVI conviction will result in a criminal record. You may also face fines and probation. You may have to perform community service or attend counseling or classes. You could be ordered to have an ignition interlock device installed in your vehicle and face increased auto insurance rates and difficulty with employment opportunities in the future.Â
As you can see, an OVI conviction can have a long-lasting impact on your life. That is why it is important to fight your OVI charges with a strong defense. A skilled Centerville DUI attorney from The VanNoy Firm can help.
