If My Dui Is Reduced To A Dwai, What Do I Gain?
Not much. In Colorado both are counted as alcohol offenses (crimes) for the rest of your life. While DWAI most likely will not be considered by other states, DUI travels across state lines. DWAI may avoid an interlock for multiple offenders and a suspension for all.
I had two alcohol offenses when I was younger. What will happen to my license if I have a third conviction?
Your license will be automatically revoked for two years.
