Basically, “driving while intoxicated” (DWI) and “driving under the influence” (DUI) refer to any drug whether prescribed, illegal, or alcohol. So then, DWI and DUI account for a driver that is operating any motor vehicle under the influence of an illegal drug, such as marijuana or cocaine, or even a prescription drug.
