The DUI Law in Oklahoma
Drunk driving is charged as DUI in Oklahoma, at a blood alcohol level of 0.08 or more; driving while impaired (DWI) is charged from 0.05.
Driving in Oklahoma is consent to a breath or blood test when an officer has cause to suspect DUI; the license case that follows a refusal or a failed test is run by Service Oklahoma, separately from the criminal case.
For charging and sentencing, Oklahoma counts prior offenses within 10 years.
