Of course. That is what occurs in every DUI - DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE. If you are claiming you can prove someone else 'drugged' you, that could be argued as a defense, but you still 'drove' voluntarily, unless a gun was held to your head. Now, if serious about getting legal counsel to help you, feel free to contact me.
