Georgia law defines DUI as not only driving under the influence of alcohol but also driving under the influence of drugs. In Georgia, a person is guilty of a DUI if driving under the influence of any drug to the extent that it is less safe for the person to drive. If a person operates a motor vehicle with any amount of marijuana or a controlled substance in the person’s body, they can also be found guilty of a DUI.
