Driving under the influence in the state of Wisconsin is defined as operating a vehicle with a blood alcohol content of .08% or more. When someone is pulled over on suspicion of driving under the influence and they have a blood alcohol content of .08%, or they refuse a breathalyzer test, they are arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated.
