We know that navigating a DUI can be overwhelming. Understanding the requirements and process after an alcohol related driving offense in Utah is an important step to getting back on the road. We’ve put together some general information to help you get started.

According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, it’s the only state in the US where the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for driving is 0.05%, rather than the standard 0.08% common to other states. Utah is also a “per se” state, which means that if your tested BAC is at or above 0.05%, you can be charged with DUI simply for driving the vehicle, regardless of whether you’re visibly impaired.
