THE CRACKDOWN
Texas leads the nation in drunk driving crashes and fatalities. That's why thousands of state troopers and local law officers across Texas are stepping up patrols and arresting drunk drivers.
THE CONSEQUENCES
In Texas, the legal limit for intoxication is .08 BAC. If an officer thinks your driving is impaired, you can still be stopped and arrested for DWI regardless of your BAC. Penalties get worse with every DWI offense.
