Legal Definition of Driving
In many jurisdiction the term “drunk driving” is a misnomer because a person does not have to drink or drive to be convicted of drunk driving. For whatever reason, the legal system has curtailed motorists rights to make it easier … Continue reading
Driver’s License Sanction
Most states predicate their motor vehicle licensure laws on one simple legal concept – driving is a privilege, not a fundamental right – so any driver’s license sanction is remedial, not punitive. Consequently, a drunk driving criminal charge is separate … Continue reading
