Behind The Wheel: Understanding Ohio DUI/OVI Laws and Defenses
Manage episode 433923673 series 3592785
On this episode of The Legal Shark Tank, Shane Hersner breaks down the differences between DUI and OVI charges in Ohio. While many people use the term DUI, the technical term in Ohio is OVI, which stands for operating a vehicle while impaired. Shane explains the requirement to prove operation of the motor vehicle while impaired and discusses the secondary offense of physical control. OVI carries mandatory minimum penalties, while physical control for a first offense has no minimum penalties, aiming to deter individuals from driving under the influence.
