Hi mate just posted same question myself other day had one reply saying drink drive was not a crime of moral turpitude which is the question on the visa waiver form,so i went on internet and found the meaning of moral turpitude on (wikipedia encyclopedia)and not only does it state what is written on the form it also gives a list of crimes not related to moral turpitude and drink driving is one of them.It also states that while america recognises that drink driving does not fall under this catogory britain find it easyer to make everyone ever arrested to apply,so i will risk it ithink i will risk it, alot of people posted have done the same and being fine but nothing is 100%so you will have to decide after weighing everything up.
