A person can be charged with DUII in Oregon for driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, cannabis (marijuana), psilocybin (magic mushrooms), a controlled substance, or an inhalant, or any combination of these substances. This means that you can even be charged with DUII for driving after you’ve taken a medication that your doctor gave you. But in order to convict you the prosecutor must prove that the substance or substances that you took impaired your ability to operate the vehicle to a noticeable degree. If you have been charged with a marijuana DUII, or controlled substance DUII, a good attorney will be able to advise you what defenses you may have to the charge.
