You may not be aware that you can be arrested for DUI when under the influence of drugs, illegal or prescribed, as well as for alcohol. The State of Oregon goes as far to say that you can be arrested for a per se DUI even if the drugs themselves are not actually affecting you at the time you are pulled over. If a residue of the drug, called the drug’s metabolite, is found within your bloodstream, the law enforcement official may arrest you for a per se DUI violation! Do not be a victim of the system. Contact the Macomber Law P.C. today to speak with one of our knowledgeable DUI narcotics defense lawyers.
You may be arrested and charged with DUI if you are caught driving a vehicle under the influence of street drugs like marijuana, cocaine, heroine, and meth (methamphetamine). You also may be charged with DUI for driving under the influence of prescription drugs as well. These include vicodin, percocet, soma, loratab, ambien, oxycotton, or any other prescription drugs and their metabolites found in your system that may inhibit your ability to operate a vehicle.
