by Cary Bergeron

Drunk driving in Montana is against the law. If you are caught drinking and driving you will have to face many Montana DUI Laws. In all 50 states if you have a blood alcohol concentration of (BAC) 0.08% or higher than you are considered driving under the influence of alcohol. Also in all 50 states including Montana it is illegal to drive under the influence of drugs and most all states carry the same penalties for driving under the influence or alcohol or drugs.



Once you are pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI) than the police officer will most likely give you a field sobriety test. This test will determine whether you are drunk and if they should administer a blood alcohol concentration test. Most all of these tests are now recorded from the police officers car as this is a great piece of evidence in court if you choose to fight the conviction.



Montana DUI Laws state that after you are caught drinking and driving that you could spend up to 60 days in jail, pay up to $500 in fines and attend an alcohol dependency treatment program as well. These penalties are for the first time offenders and you can be assured that great penalties await someone who does it more than once.



Also in order to drive again after a DUI in Montana you will need to provide proof of insurance. This can be very difficult and costly as more and more insurance companies are not insuring DUI offenders. If you find one that does you will most likely be paying a lot more for insurance than you did before you violated Montana DUI Laws.
