DWI stands for driving while intoxicated. In New Jersey, driving while intoxicated covers not only alcohol related incidents but also covers drug-related incidents. New Jersey doesn’t have a driving under the influence charge. We just have DWI, which encompasses both drugs and alcohol. If you’ve been charged with a DWI for drugs or alcohol, it’s important that you contact an attorney to help you defend against that.
