Most people charged with a DUI in South Carolina don't realize the state has two separate alcohol-related driving charges, and the difference between them can significantly affect how a defense is built. A DUI is built around observed impairment; a DUAC is built around a BAC number, and someone can face a DUAC charge even if they showed no outward signs of impairment during the stop. Attorney Matt Bodman is a former prosecutor who understands how these cases are constructed from both sides, and he is ready to help you evaluate what the state's evidence actually supports. https://bit.ly/4dQizmq
