The phrase signifies that something is happening or occurring openly, visibly, and without concealment, typically during the daytime when visibility is high. It implies that an action or event is taking place in a public or exposed manner, without any attempt to hide or disguise it. The idiom is commonly used to emphasize the audacity or brazenness of an act that occurs in plain view, often suggesting a lack of concern for consequences or a belief that one can act with impunity.

Driving under the influence (DUI) refers to operating a vehicle while affected by alcohol, drugs, or other substances that make it harder to drive safely. When a driver is under the influence, their reaction time, judgment, and coordination are often weaker, making it difficult to control the vehicle and respond to dangers. DUI is illegal in most places and can result in serious consequences such as fines, license suspension, or even imprisonment. It is dangerous to drive under the influence, not only for the driver but also for others on the road.
