Work first under <Wiener measure> $P$ with coordinate <Brownian motion> $X$. Boundedness of $b$ implies the <Novikov condition>, so
$$
Z_T=\exp\!\left(\int_0^Tb(X_s)dX_s-\frac12\int_0^Tb(X_s)^2ds\right)
$$
has expectation one. Define $Q$ by $dQ=Z_TdP$. The <Girsanov theorem> makes
$$
W_t=X_t-\int_0^tb(X_s)ds
$$
a $Q$-Brownian motion, and hence $(X,W,Q)$ is a <weak solution of a stochastic differential equation>.
For <uniqueness in law>, start with any weak solution under $Q$ and apply the inverse <change of measure> with density $\mathcal E(-\int b(X_s)dW_s)_T$. Boundedness again gives the <Novikov condition>, and under the resulting measure $P$ the process $X$ is Brownian. Reversing the density expresses the law of $X$ under $Q$ as the same functional $Z_T$ of a Wiener path. It is therefore independent of the chosen weak solution. This proves the <Weak existence and uniqueness in law for an additive-noise SDE with bounded drift>.
