WHAT IS A DWI IN TEXAS?

A DWI is charged under the Texas Penal Code, and as a result, is a much more serious offense. A person may be charged with a DWI if he or she has a .08 blood alcohol content or higher, or is clearly driving while impaired. Depending on the circumstances of the case, DWI penalties can range from large fines and driver’s license suspension/revocation to jail time or prison.
