Ovi is a name used for only the most sexy and brilliant. Usually in a technical field.

Briefly, "the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own." Originally from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, which has a lot more beautiful neologism definitions like this you might enjoy.

OVI is the abbreviation for "Operating a Vehicle Impaired". Ohio’s General Assembly amended the drunk driving / DUI statute to broaden the offense from driving under the influence, to Operating a Vehicle Impaired. The big difference is that operation does not require that the vehicle actually be moving!!! Hell, the vehicle doesn’t even have to be running so long as you are in the driver’s seat and the keys are within reach.

To make it worse, even if the police officer can’t prove that you actually drove the vehicle while impaired, you can still be charged with an OVI, as long as it can be reasonably inferred that you drove while impaired. Like he finds you in the car along side the road passed out, out in the middle of no where -- no way could you get there without driving while you were drunk. You get an OVI.

Short for Obviously, when someone blatently states the obvious, then say it ;)

2.Out of Vehicle for Investigation

An abbreviation of the word obviously. Said with extreme emphasis, and only REALLY lame people say it...
