About this listen
Drugged driving is not the same as drunk driving and Michigan law treats it differently. In this episode, attorney Mike Kelly joins us to explain how drug-related OWI cases work, including the legal consequences, the role of blood tests, and how marijuana use can still land you in court even if it’s legal.
While most drivers are familiar with DUI laws related to alcohol, operating under the influence of drugs whether recreational, prescription, or over-the-counter comes with a different set of challenges and consequences. We cover the key legal differences between drunk and drugged driving, how marijuana legalization has affected OWI enforcement, and what role Drug Recognition Experts and blood tests play in these cases.
Whether you’ve been charged or simply want to understand the law, this episode sheds light on how Michigan handles drugged driving and why it’s just as serious as alcohol-related offenses.
