Hello,

Just wanted to let you know that DWI is a valid term.

DUI is an acronym for driving under the influence. DWI stands for driving while intoxicated. In some cases, depending on state law, the two terms are both used to describe impaired or drunken driving. Some state laws refer to it as DUI and others call it DWI. However, in states where both terms are used, DWI usually refers to driving while intoxicated of alcohol, while DUI is used when the driver is charged with being under the influence of alcohol or drugs.http://alcoholism.about.com/od/dui/qt/dui_vs_dwi.htm

I am sure that your instructor, Jan Bradburn, will be letting us know whether DWI is the correct term in this case.
