Drunk Driving Terms

 


Today's Terms

Vehicular Homicide

Definition:
Vehicular homicide is the killing of another person by one’s unlawful or negligent operation of a motor vehicle.

Sleep Deprivation

Definition:
Drowsy driving is greatly under reported because there is no test for it, as there is for intoxication, no clear way to identify it, and many states don't even have a code for it on their vehicle accident reporting forms.

Administrative License Revocation (ALR)

Definition:
Simply put, the DMV automatically revokes your license when you are arrested for DUI as part of its duty to regulate drivers’ licenses. (The court may also take your license, and may also fine or jail you.)
