I was involved in an accident where the other driver was using an illegal drug. Does the law operate similarly for drugs and alcohol?

Yes. The phrases “driving while intoxicated” (DWI) and “driving under the influence” (DUI) as used in most states do not refer to just drinking and driving. DWI and DUI can also mean that the driver was using a vehicle while under the influence of an illegal drug, such as marijuana or cocaine, or even a prescription drug.
