Kids Encyclopedia Facts

DUI is an abbreviation that can stand for different things. When you see an abbreviation, it's like a shortcut for a longer phrase. Sometimes, the same abbreviation can mean totally different things depending on where you see it!

For example, "DUI" is often used to talk about Driving under the influence, which means someone is driving a car or other vehicle when they are not able to drive safely. This is a very serious topic because it can cause accidents and harm to people.

However, "DUI" can also stand for other things, like:

  • Data Use Identifier
  • Data Use Institute
  • Davis Unified Ignition
  • Diving Unlimited International Inc
  • Documento Unico de Importación
  • Duke University Improv

It's important to remember that when you see an abbreviation, it's always a good idea to check what it means in the specific situation you're looking at!
