Common Schedule I and II controlled substances include methamphetamine, marijuana, some hallucinogenic drugs, certain opiates, and more. Additionally, Indiana’s zero tolerance law means it is illegal for individuals under 21 years of age to have a BAC of 0.02% or more while operating a motor vehicle. The consequences of a conviction for OWI are far reaching and long lasting, which is why you should fight these charges aggressively.

Fighting the Penalties for a OWI

The penalties for drugged or drunk driving become much more severe if this is a subsequent offense or if it occurs under certain circumstances, such as if you caused property damage or bodily injury. If you are convicted, you will have a criminal record, which could potentially impede your ability to apply for certain loans, find housing, and get a job.

If convicted of a first-offense OWI, you could face:

• Up to $5,000 in fines
• Up to one year in jail
• A driver’s license suspension of up to 180 days
• An ignition interlock device (IID) in your motor vehicle for up to one year
