What is the difference between a DUI versus a DWI?
The difference between a DUI and a DWI varies by jurisdiction. In some places, DUI (driving under the influence) refers to impaired driving by alcohol, drugs, or both, while DWI (driving while intoxicated) may specifically refer to impairment caused by alcohol. In other jurisdictions, the terms may be used interchangeably to denote impaired driving regardless of the substance involved. It's important to check the specific laws in your area to understand the distinction.

What is the highest alcohol content?
The highest alcohol content physically possible is 100% abv (alcohol by volume) although this is not suitable for human consumption. The highest alcohol content for a distilled beverage is around 190 proof or 95% abv for grain spirits such as Everclear or Gem Clear. These highly flammable beverages are most often mixed with non-alcoholic drinks such as fruit juices, or in a large communal punch bowl as in "jungle juice." As most liquor is between 40 and 50% abv, the ingestion of such spirits often causes extreme intoxication.
