The DUI Law in Utah
Drunk driving is charged as DUI in Utah, at a blood alcohol level of 0.05 or more.
Driving in Utah 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 the Driver License Division, separately from the criminal case.
For charging and sentencing, Utah counts prior offenses within 10 years.
Who Makes DUI Arrests in Juab County

Nephi reported 114 arrests to the FBI for 2025, all offenses together; the FBI's count for Juab County does not break DUI out.
