Across the nation many states are adopting stricter drunken driving laws. However, in Wisconsin, many lawmakers believe that Wisconsin drunken driving standars will  stay lower than most other states.

Currently in the Wisconsin legislature, congressmen are likely to adopt laws that would require first-time offenders to use interlock devices and make four-time drunken offenses a felony. These laws would beef up drunken driving laws but will still keep them below national averages.

In most other states, interlock devices are used for anyone caught driving with a BAC above 8.0 percent. Also, most other states consider a third drunken driving offense a felony.
