The DUII Law in Oregon
In Oregon the offense is DUII, and the limit is 0.08.
Driving in Oregon is consent to a breath or blood test when an officer has cause to suspect DUII; the license case that follows a refusal or a failed test is run by the DMV, separately from the criminal case.
Who Makes DUII Arrests in Lane County
The Lane County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Eugene, Springfield, Cottage Grove, Florence, Junction City, Oakridge and one more cities make the DUII arrests in Lane County.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Lane County: the Lane County Liquor Commission (state agency); the University of Oregon (campus police); the Lane County State Police (state police); the Lane County State Police makes the arrests on the state highways.
Together, the five agencies in Lane County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 8,665 arrests to the FBI that year, all offenses together; the FBI's count for Lane County does not break DUII out.
