This definition encompasses not only alcohol but also various controlled substances, both legal and illegal. The terminology emphasizes the legal implications surrounding the act of driving while impaired, highlighting the risks associated with such behavior. Understanding this definition is crucial for grasping the legal framework and consequences associated with DUIs, which may include fines, license suspension, and even imprisonment.
