When individuals are suspected of drunk driving, police often ask them to take a blood or urine tests. These tests help prosecutors confirm whether or not individuals are actually over the limit.

While individuals are not technically required to take these tests, it can sometimes be in their best interest to do so. If individuals do not take these tests, then their license may be suspended for a year.

Two children were airlifted to a nearby hospital in Houston following a two-vehicle accident at Highway 288 and Oak Drive at around 3:30 p.m. Authorities believe the two-vehicle accident occurred when one vehicle ran a red light and collided with the other. The driver of the vehicle with the children in it was later determined to be under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident and was arrested on charges of DWI with a child passenger.

When individuals receive a DWI conviction for the first time, they often are required to take alcohol-related education classes.

These classes typically include at least 8 hours of class time, and the coursework usually must be completed within 6 months of the conviction. If the coursework is not completed, then the convicted individual’s drivers license may be suspended.

When individuals are pulled over for a suspected DWI, they often undergo a series of field sobriety tests. One of these tests is the one leg stand test.

During this test, drivers are often required to stand on one leg. While standing, these drivers will be watched by police officers who will look for swaying, loss of balance, and hopping. If drivers lose balance multiple times while performing this test, officers will likely conduct more tests or arrest them.
