What is the name of your state? Austin

I got a link about Austin DWI.
But I got lot of confusion because this site has terms that I don't know at all.

I cant understand the following phrase
The specific criminal offense may be called, depending on the jurisdiction, driving while intoxicated (DWI), driving while impaired (also DWI ), operating while intoxicated (OWI), operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OMVI), driving under the influence [of alcohol or other drugs] (DUI), driving under the combined influence of alcohol and/or other drugs, driving under the influence per se or drunk in charge [of a vehicle]. Such laws may also apply to boating (as in Canada), piloting aircraft, and even bicycling in some states such as California.
Please leave the comment explaining me about those terms

thanks

What don't you understand?

Depending on where you are at - they might use different terms. But it is still the same offense; drinking too much and/or under the influence of drugs a person should not operate a motorized vehicle.
