The DWI Law in Missouri
Drunk driving is charged as DWI in Missouri, at a blood alcohol level of 0.08 or more.
Driving in Missouri is consent to a breath or blood test when an officer has cause to suspect DWI; the license case that follows a refusal or a failed test is run by the Department of Revenue, separately from the criminal case.
Who Makes DWI Arrests in Webb City
The Jasper County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Webb City (filed by the FBI as Webb City Police Department) make the DWI arrests in and around Webb City.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Jasper County: Missouri Southern State University (campus police); Ozarks Drug Enforcement Team (other agency).
Together, the six agencies in Jasper County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 797 arrests to the FBI that year, all offenses together; the FBI's count for Jasper County does not break DWI out.

The court case is only half the record. The Department of Revenue runs a separate administrative case over the license, which can suspend it before the criminal case is decided, and the Missouri Department of Revenue Driver License Bureau keeps the driving record the conviction goes on.
