Michigan Drunk Driving Laws - MI DUI Laws Michigan's tolerance for drunk drivers is going down. Today the standard for driving drunk within Michigan is .08 blood-alcohol content (BAC). Michigan previously had a two-tiered standard, with .10 BAC or greater considered drunk driving and .08-.09 BAC being impaired driving however that has now changed. Michigan is the 44th state to adopt an .08 BAC standard for drunk driving offenses. Many studies show that .08 BAC laws save lives. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates the country would save 400-600 lives each year if all states adopted .08 laws. The change also means Michigan avoids significant federal penalties and the loss of highway construction funds. A first-time offender convicted of a Michigan drunk driving case faces: • Up to 93 days in jail • Up to a $500 fine • Up to 360 hours of community service • Up to 6 points on a driver's license • Up to 180 days with a suspended license, with a restricted license possible after 30 days Convicted drunk drivers will also be subject to a new $1,000 penalty that is included in a recently approved driver responsibility program.
