Phoenix Drug DUI Attorney

Most people know in Arizona that you can be arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. A person arrested and facing DUI drug charges results from someone accused of driving or being in actual physical control of a vehicle with any illegal drug, unprescribed prescription drug, or its psychoactive metabolite in their body. The State need not prove impairment to obtain a conviction for this offense. Instead, they must only show that the defendant drove or was in actual physical control of a vehicle with the prohibited substance in their body. If the person has the drug or its active metabolite in their body but has a prescription for it, his or her Phoenix drug DUI attorney can raise an affirmative defense. This defense can then allow this person to possibly avoid a conviction by showing that they were taking the drug as prescribed. A DUI drug charge is generally a misdemeanor. It is punished the same way as any non-extreme DUI, with the exception that a conviction for DUI drugs comes with a one-year revocation of the person’s driving privileges. Learn more about drug DUI charges in Arizona by speaking with a Phoenix DUI attorney experienced in defending drug DUI cases.
