Understanding Third-Offense OWPD Charges in Michigan

What is OWPD?

Operating While in the Presence of Drugs (OWPD) is a serious offense in Michigan. It refers to the act of operating a motor vehicle while having any amount of a controlled substance, including illegal drugs or prescription medications, in your body. Third-offense OWPD charges carry significantly more severe penalties than first and second offenses. It is crucial to understand the key aspects of OWPD charges:

  1. Repeat Offense: A third-offense OWPD charge means that you have been previously convicted of OWPD or a similar offense two or more times. Repeat offenses are treated much more severely under the law.
  2. Enhanced Penalties: Third-offense OWPD charges can result in increased fines, longer driver's license suspensions or revocations, mandatory substance abuse treatment programs, extended probation, community service, and substantial prison sentences. The specific penalties will depend on the circumstances of the case, prior convictions, and other factors.
  3. Zero Tolerance Policy: Michigan maintains a zero-tolerance policy for OWPD, meaning that any presence of a controlled substance in your system while operating a motor vehicle can lead to criminal charges.
