BWI in Missouri
With the Mississippi River, the Missouri River and the lakes of the state, recreational activities are plentiful. Often, however, boat operators lose track of how many alcoholic beverages they have consumed. With an elevated blood alcohol content level, some operators experience impaired judgment, engage in unsafe behavior and cause boating accidents or wrongful death.
If you are convicted of BWI, you will face criminal consequences similar to DUI/DWI: A first offense is a Class B Misdemeanor, a second offense is a Class A Misdemeanor and a third offense is a Class D Felony. All convictions carry potential jail time and fines and remain indefinitely on your record. Further, they will count toward enhancing the penalty of any future DWI/DUI convictions.
