You have often heard don’t drink and drive but the law also prohibits other activities if you are under the influence of beer, alcohol, or drugs of any kind, even prescription medications. For instance, it is against the law to carry or use any type of gun while intoxicated. If you have a license to carry a concealed handgun and are charged with a DUI/APC, you will probably be charged with a separate crime of transporting a loaded firearm or being in possession of a firearm while intoxicated. If convicted, your handgun license will be suspended for 6 months. If you are convicted twice of offenses relating to intoxication, you won’t even be eligible to receive a concealed handgun license for 3 years after you complete your sentence. Of course, even if there were no legal consequences, we would not recommend having any type of weapon on or near you if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The two just don’t belong together. If you are selling or trading any type of gun, make sure that the person you are doing business with is not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. If they are, it is illegal for you to transfer possession of a gun to them in any way. Better to be safe than sorry – always check. Also, if you are out enjoying an establishment where alcoholic beverages are consumed, please refrain from having any gun, dagger, knife, loaded cane, billy, hand chain, metal knuckles, or any other offensive weapon on you. This, too, is against the law. Bruce Edge, Tulsa DUI Lawyer Board Certified in DUI Defense under ABA guidelines 918-582-6333 1-877-DUI-EDGE Bruce@EdgeLawFirm.com Let us relieve this stressful time
