Although laws vary by state, DUI or DWI is generally considered to be driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs. Most jurisdictions will prosecute DUI to the fullest extent of the law. Individuals accused of drunk driving should retain an experienced DUI/DWI defense attorney to protect your rights. An attorney can help you get a MVD screening to allow daily driving to and from work after getting a DUI. It does however require a MVD screening.

Arizona MVD DUI Screening
In 2000, approximately 6,000 blood and urine samples were analyzed for alcohol as a part of routine DUI (Driving Under the Influence) screening. However, only 50 percent of the samples were also analyzed for the presence of drugs. A complete drug analysis of all blood and urine specimens submitted for DUI investigation is necessary to implement a comprehensive prevention program. In order to obtain a clear, complete profile of those arrested for DUI, the presence of common prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, and drugs of abuse/controlled substances must be identified. If given a DUI it is sometimes necessary to have an ignition interlock system that makes the car available to the driver. When an interlock system is installed the user must blow into the device everytime before starting the vehicle. A restricted licensing screening can be given to lessen the time of a suspended license and let the person drive to and from work.
