Drinking and driving is NOT against the law
There is a lot of bad information out there about drinking and driving. Some people might tell you that if you had even one drink, you may as well plead guilty and get it over with. That's not true.
In Canada, it's not against the law to drink and drive. What is against the law is "driving while impaired", or driving "over.08". In other words, with a blood alcohol level that's over the legal limit (over 80 mg. of alcohol in 100 ml of blood). Simply drinking and driving is not enough to sustain a conviction for DUI.
