Charged With DUI-Drugs (DUI-D) in Oklahoma?
Being arrested for a drug-related DUI can be overwhelming. Oklahoma’s DUI laws are tough – and with the newest changes, the risks are even higher, including possible felony charges even for a first offense.
A DUI-Drugs charge doesn’t make you a bad person, but it can affect your freedom, record, and driver’s license. Many DUI-Drug cases can be challenged, and the right attorney can make a major difference.
What Is a DUI-Drugs (DUI-D) in Oklahoma?
Under Oklahoma law, you can be charged with DUI-Drugs if you:
- Have any detectable amount of Schedule 1 drug in your system
- Are under the influence of any intoxicating substance (scheduled or otherwise) that impairs your ability to operate a vehicle safely

There are no legal limits for drugs – any amount that causes impairment can lead to a DUI-D charge.
