Indiana


Indiana officially uses the term “operating while intoxicated” (OWI) instead of “driving under the influence” (DUI). However, some people still use DUI (driving under the influence) and DWI (driving while intoxicated) to refer to drunk or drugged driving.
 

Indiana’s OWI laws prohibit all motorists from operating a vehicle:

+ with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or more
+ with any amount of a schedule I or II controlled substance in their system, or
+ while actually intoxicated by drugs or alcohol.

The extensive list of controlled substances under the schedule I and II classifications includes opiates, hallucinogenic drugs, marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamine.

Indiana also has a “zero tolerance” law that makes it illegal for underage drivers (those under 21 years old) to operate a vehicle with a BAC of .02% or more.
