DUI and Drug Charges in Fort Myers

Challenging Your Case with Calvo & Calvo, Attorneys at Law

A person can be charged with driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or drugs. What some people may not realize is that they can be charged with DUI, whether they are taking illegal drugs such as marijuana or cocaine, or even a perfectly legal over-the-counter medication or prescription medication. Any substance which inhibits your ability to operate a motor vehicle can cause you legal trouble.

Alcohol DUI vs. Drug DUI

The difference between an alcohol related DUI and DUI & drugs is that there is no legal limit for over-the-counter medications and prescription medications. A person can be arrested for DUI & drugs when they completely don't expect it. If you have been arrested for DUI & drugs, contact a Fort Myers DUI lawyer from our firm without delay! We have more than 40 years of combined experience.

Aside from alcohol, many illegal and prescription drugs affect the driver's ability to drive safely. Many prescription drugs have very similar effects as alcohol or worse.

Many drugs can have very negative effects which can cause disaster to the person behind the wheel, including:

  • Drowsiness
  • Nervousness
  • Blurred vision
  • Impaired judgement
