Discussion
Technically, you should apply for a B1 visitors visa, because in using the I-94W visa waiver program, you would have to disclose any instances where you have been arrested (rather than convicted) during the last 10 years.
That said, USCIS are on the look-out for properly dodgy people, rather than those who have shown poor judgement once in their lives. DUI is considered an act of moral terpitude (i.e. you did it despite knowing it was wrong) and you are supposed to disclose such acts.
In reality, not many people do. Those that do are usually habitual offenders, which means that the B1 isn't usually granted, in any case.
We have more than enough loony, drunk-off-their-tits drivers as it is, without importing more of them from overseas.
