Q: What is aggravated DWI?

A: Aggravated DWI is an offense that has heightened penalties because, rather than a normal DWI, which is where you blow or take a breath test of .08 or above, your breath test or blood test is .18 or above. It has enhanced penalties beyond those of a regular DWI because you are deemed to have such a high level of alcohol in your blood.
