Drunk driving / DWI / DUI in any state to serve as prior in Michigan
June 30, 2007
DETROIT Michigan
Michigan introduced new legislation to include all DUI / DWI /drunk driving incidents that occurred in the United States when prosecuting a Michigan driver.
If passed, the legislation would allow prior DUI / DWI / drunk driving convictions in other states to be taken into consideration and may be used to increase the punishment if the person is prosecuted in Michigan for drunken driving.
The legislator does not want Michigan to be known as a safe harbor for drunk drivers.
