True or False: An arrest for D.W.I. can only be made if the offense occurs on a public road.

The statement is false because an arrest for Driving While Intoxicated (D.W.I.) is not restricted exclusively to offenses occurring on public roads. In Louisiana, D.W.I. laws apply to the operation of a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs, regardless of whether the vehicle is on a public or private road. Law enforcement officers have the authority to make an arrest for D.W.I. in various situations, such as on private property or in parking lots, as long as the vehicle operation meets the criteria for impairment under the law. This broad jurisdiction allows for effective enforcement of D.W.I. laws to ensure public safety.
