On your channel, I see the inials "OUI" indicated in one of you news stories. Do you mean "DUI" (DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE") or is there another crime with the initials (OUI)?? Thank you very much. Elizabeth Rose
In order to include ALL vehicles, DUI was changed to OUI. The argument was that people were declaring in court that people weren’t “driving” say, a jetski for example and thus could not be charged under the DUI which they said was meant only for driving an automobile.

OUI = Operating under the influence
operating under the influence
OUI stands for operating under the influence, as in operating a motor vehicle
